Hello there,

Thank you best,

creating a new muscle

Hello,

I'm trying to create an additional TFL muscle to my gait model. Although I know how to transfer the actual one, I might not be able to add a new muscle to the model.
Could someone tell me where I can find the necessary tools in OpenSim to do so?

Thanks!

Re: How to get Moment Arm of a Body on Matlab ?

Hi there,

I have the same goal to extract the moment arms over the time. But I don't get how to read them out after doint the MuscleAnalysis, i.e. how are these files then called? I see many fiber lengths and forces but no moment arms.

Thank you best in advance for the help.
