RE: Improving moment arm calculation speed

<t>Hi Ayman,<br/> <br/> I was using version 2.0, but what you describe in 2.2 sounds exactly what I am after.<br/> <br/> I downloaded the Linux 2.2.0 version but it does not include the MomentArmSolver.h header file. Has this functionality been included in the linux version libraries? If so should c...

Improving moment arm calculation speed

<t>Hi,<br/> <br/> A part of my work involves mapping muscle moment arm data to model pose. I use the computeMomentArm() function through the API to do this, but it takes quite a while to compute for every muscle in a large model.<br/> <br/> I was wondering if some one could explain how this function...

muscle singularity problem

<t>Hi,<br/> <br/> I am using the upper extremity model to calculate the muscle Jacobian (muscle moment arms) and kinematic Jacobian (hand velocity/joint velocity relationship) for given poses via the API. I have problems when I set the "shoulder_elv" coordinate to zero, since this puts the arm into ...

calculating muscle data via API

<r>Hey everyone, I have some questions about using the API to calculate muscle state. I am putting the model into a state, and then calculating muscle parameters such as length, passive force, max active force, etc.<br/> <br/> I was just hoping to confirm the steps I am taking, since I am a little u...

What happens to muscle length when scaling?

<t>Hi, I have a question which has been on my mind for a while.<br/> <br/> Most muscle models use the optimal fibre length to calculate a normalized fibre length, which in turn is used with a force-length function (along with other parameters) to estimate muscle tension.<br/> <br/> What happens when...

RE: API tips and tricks

<r>Thanks Ayman. I am really looking forward to these additions in the next release. I know it's hard to estimate when this release will be ready, but do you have any feeling on the time frame we might expect it? (a week or two? a month? 6 months?) <E>:)</E><br/> <br/> Cheers<br/> <br/> Marc<br/> <b...

API tips and tricks

<r>Hello everyone,<br/> <br/> I have been using OpenSim's API for a little while now, and it is great for performing analyses not based on motion capture data. However understanding the operation of the low level functions is sometimes challenging. I have a few questions on making life easier with t...

RE: OpenSim on Linux - 64bit?

Hi, sorry to be annoying and clutter the forum. I was just wondering how the progress of the next release is coming along? I believe the next release will include 64 bit Linux libraries? I am very keen to get this :)

RE: Calling static optimization from main program

<r>Hello,<br/> <br/> I thought I would give this thread a fresh bump since I have been trying to solve this problem for some time and have made little progress.<br/> <br/> What I am trying to do is perform static optimization of a model via the API. I can't use the GUI because I am using the linux v...
