Muscle forces

Post by daniel jaramillo » Fri Sep 11, 2009 1:18 pm

Hi,

I don't understand why there is such a great difference between max_isometric_force for muscles in a model containing a torso (gait 2392 or gait 2354) and lower extremity models.

Thanks,

Daniel

Hi Daniel,

Here is a page on the wiki explaining the difference between the max isometric forces in Gait2392 and the Delp 1990 model (which I think you mean by "lower extremity models"): http://wiki.simtk.org/opensim/Gait2392_ ... scle_Force

Hope that helps!

Cheers,
Sam
