Definition of "reaction force" in MocoJointReactionGoal
Posted: Sat Nov 21, 2020 6:37 am
Hi all,
I am wondering about the definition of "reaction force" (common problem in biomechanics!) in MocoJointReactionGoal. Is this force the "resultant force" from inverse dynamics (i.e. the force labeled Fk in the knee diagram below) or is it the "contact force" (i.e. the sum of the two forces labeled fc1 and fc2 below, calculated from the resultant and muscle forces)?
