Re: Hyoid bone

Hi Michala, Thanks for your reply, and sorry for the late (I didn't check the "Notify me when a reply is posted" square) I am using Vasavada Neck model fo find muscle activation for different movements (extension, flexion, rotation, etc.) And I would like to add the hyoïd bone with its muscle on the...

Re: Hyoid bone

Hi Michala,

I am also looking for this geometry. Have you found it during your research ?

Cheers

Pierre

Re: Installation in Win7 64bit

Hi Nicolas,

I am working with Opensim 3.0, I believe that's why nothing happens. Thank you for your reply!

Best Regards
Pierre.

Re: Installation in Win7 64bit

Hi, I am on Windows 7 64 bit, and I did not managed to launch it. I can read in the instruction : " 6) Start OpenSim. Nothing should changed, then exit OpenSim. A NetBeans window should appear very briefly, loading the module. OpenSim will restart automatically with the module installed and ready (a...

Re: Static Optimization : physical weakness

Hi Ayman and all, Ayman, thank you for your answer. Following Opensim gaitmodel Actuator's structure, I created 6 "CoordinateActuators" corresponding to my 6 DOF, and I append them to my osim model. Then my StaticOptimization worked at last. This is an example of one of my actuators : <CoordinateAct...

Static Optimization : physical weakness

Hi everybody, I am using the Vasavada’s neck model, and I am trying to perform Static Optimization (SO). Nevertheless, in most cases, the optimization does not succeed because the muscles are weak, and that’s why my SO takes always a very long time to converge (or sometimes never converge at all). M...

Re: Static Optimization & RRA_Actuators file

Hi Caterina and everybody, I think I have exactly the same problem. Did you manage to find a solution? I am using the Vasavada’s neck model, and I am trying to perform Static Optimization (SO). Nevertheless, in most cases, the optimization does not succeed because the muscles are weak, and that’s wh...

Mass and inertial propreties

Hi everybody, I am using the Vasavada's neck model, and I would like to perform Inverse Dynamic. Nevertheless, there are in this model any mass and inertial propreties. Then I tried to take the full model to take theses informations, but some groups are already made. Ex : the segment "torso" is cons...

Re: Muscle Activation

Hi Ayman and Thenia, Ayman, thank you for the description of theses differents cases. For my part, it was a problem of mass and inertia propreties. I am currently fixing it by addind mass, mass center and inertia matrix in the joint file. I will tell you what I will find out when I would have comple...
