Re: Speeding up the FD calculations

Hi Shivangi, I had looked to do something similar. From my limited understanding (maybe another community member with a better understand can clarify) the forward dynamic calculations are performed on a single core, and there does not seem to be a way of accessing how the calculations are distribute...

Wrapping path method

Dear OpenSim community, I am adding sphere wrapping surfaces to my model. I noticed the tag 'method' in the xml file under the PathWrap of the muscles. Documentation explains 'The wrapping method used to solve the path around the wrap object'. In the API documentation for version 2 (I could not find...

Accessing objectgroup of markers

Dear OpenSim community, I am unable to access the items of a group within marker sets programatically via the Matlab API. I have been able to access the marker set and the groups within the marker set and the member list within a specific group. However the problem arises when I try to access a spec...

Re: Number of cores used by OpenSim

Hi Pavlos, Thanks for the reply. I hadn't even thought to look on the Moco forum, I will definetly check that out! I like the sound of your idea. I will post here if I find a way to control the number of threads used to run the pure FD simulation. If you could share what you find when scaling up to ...

Re: Number of cores used by OpenSim

Thank you for the reply Thomas, Sorry I wasn't clear, I should have specified, programatically throught the MatLab API, but I take it from your reply that the answer to that is no. I think this will be sufficient though :D I will test running the simulations in parallel as this at least partially so...

Number of cores used by OpenSim

Dear All, I am hoping to run OpenSim forward dynamic simulations on a HPC (Linux), to do so I have to specify the number of hours and cores I will use. I have been running the simulations on my local PC (windows), but I've not been able to figure out how to find the number of cores OpenSim is using....

Re: Matlab crashing when creating multiple custom joints (SOLVED)

similar to the post found here: https://simtk.org/plugins/phpBB/viewtopicPhpbb.php?f=91&t=14067&p=40440&start=0&view= the problem was related to assigning the function to the transform axis. setFunction was causing the crash, changing setFunction to set_function resolved the problem. This is because...

Matlab crashing when creating multiple custom joints (SOLVED)

Dear OpenSim users, I am using the Matlab API to create a model. When I run the code it 'successfully' creates the model as I expect, I can open the model in OpenSim and the properties seem correct there, likewise if I look at the model code if I open it in a text editor. However, about 30-60s after...
