Questions about weld constraint

[Zu Xueying]

Hello, all!
I tried to add a weld constraint to my model, but if I write the code like this:

Code: Select all

<ConstraintSet name="constraintset">
			<objects>
				<WeldConstraint name="tuigan1_qiufu">
					<frame1name>qiufu1_offset</frame1name>
					<frame2name>tuigan1_offset</frame2name>
					
				</WeldConstraint>
			</objects>
		</ConstraintSet>

Then there will be an error message:

Failed to connect Socket 'frame1' of type PhysicalFrame (details: Connectee for Socket 'frame1' of type PhysicalFrame in WeldConstraint at /constraintset/tuigan1_qiufu is unspecified. If this model was built programmatically, perhaps finalizeConnections() was not called before printing.
Thrown at Component.h:3344 in finalizeConnection().).
In Object 'tuigan1_qiufu' of type WeldConstraint.
Thrown at Component.cpp:313 in finalizeConnections().

And if I write the code like this :

Code: Select all

<ConstraintSet name="constraintset">
			<objects>
				<WeldConstraint name="tuigan1_qiufu">
					<frame1name>qiufu1_offset</frame1name>
					<frame2name>tuigan1_offset</frame2name>
					<frames>
						<PhysicalOffsetFrame name="tuigan1_offset">
							<!--The geometry used to display the axes of this Frame.-->
							<FrameGeometry name="frame_geometry">
								<!--Path to a Component that satisfies the Socket 'frame' of type Frame.-->
								<socket_frame>..</socket_frame>
								<!--Scale factors in X, Y, Z directions respectively.-->
								<scale_factors>0.20000000000000001 0.20000000000000001 0.20000000000000001</scale_factors>
							</FrameGeometry>

						<PhysicalOffsetFrame name="qiufu1_offset">

							</FrameGeometry>
							<!--Path to a Component that satisfies the Socket 'parent' of type C (description: The parent frame to this frame.).-->
							<socket_parent>/bodyset/qiufu1</socket_parent>
							<!--Translational offset (in meters) of this frame's origin from the parent frame's origin, expressed in the parent frame.-->
							<translation>0 0.02 0</translation>
							<!--Orientation offset (in radians) of this frame in its parent frame, expressed as a frame-fixed x-y-z rotation sequence.-->
							<orientation>1.5708 0 0</orientation>
						</PhysicalOffsetFrame>
					</frames>
			</WeldConstraint>
			</objects>
		</ConstraintSet>

Then the model cannot be shown in Opensim. I wonder why did this happen and how should I correct the code.
Thanks for your help!

This looks like an OpenSim question. Please post it to the OpenSim forum here rather than the Simbody forum.

Sorry I didn't notice that
