RE: Pulling in-motion muscle-tendon lengths o

<t>Hi Dan, <br/> <br/> That's indeed the case. You can plot muscle lengths (and all other buit-in quantities) during a motion by picking the motion/time for X quantity, muscle-length for Y and the muscle(s) you care about for muscle-names.<br/> <br/> We will release a User's guide that will detail a...

RE: Upper extremity model and markers ?

<t>Dear Kazutaka, <br/> <br/> The only way to combine models as of now is to edit the XML files and manually merge corresponding XML elements (e.g. <ActuatorSet>, <DynamicsEngine>, ..) in both models. <br/> <br/> This is an error prone process, and we hope to address it in the near future..<br/> <br...

RE: Foot model

<t>Hi Christopher,<br/> <br/> When running IK (either for marker placement or for proper IK) you can have marker trajectories only or you might also have some "guess" for coordinate values as well (obtained from the motion capture system). If you have the latter, it helps the IK solver converge fast...

RE: Foot model

<t>Thanks Daniel for the response. <br/> <br/> Some more info below<br/> <br/> 1. We don't have graphical editing of markers yet so you'll need to modify the coordinates manually in the XML file. (A possible hack is to make a muscle point at the position of the marker and use graphical editing to po...

RE: Inverse Dynamics on Upper Limbs

<t>Hi all, <br/> <br/> I investigated the crash and that was caused by joints whose name starts with a number (e.g. 2MCP). If you change these names in SIMM or in the file so that they don't begin with a number, the crash will be fixed. The fix for that will go into next release.<br/> <br/> A more i...

RE: Inverse Dynamics on Upper Limbs

Hi Istvan,

Can you send us the .osim file you're using? Without that it's impossible to track down the bug.

Sorry for the delay,

RE: Continuous output of muscle lengths

<t>Dear Jesse,<br/> <br/> You can do what you want by creating a new type of muscle (a C++ class) and have the methods of this class call your Matlab code. Only problem is that our API is not stable/publically available yet. The good news is that it will be made available later this year.<br/> <br/>...

RE: Changing visibility of muscles

<t>Dear Jesse, <br/> <br/> Version 1.1.1 of OpenSim (already posted on the download page) offers this capability. If you go to Edit->Preferences ... <br/> A dialog will come up that allows you to change a few things about the GUI including <br/> "Muscle Display Radius". The new value becomes effecti...

RE: Joint Reaction and Contact Forces

Dear Adam,

As of now there isn't a way for OpenSim to report/plot joint contact forces to users. We understand it's an important functionality and we hope to implement this feature in the near future.

Best regards,
