hello everybody
I would like to study the muscle loads,muscle activity and joint moment when a person sit statically in the cab in a driving position.(that is ,a particular posture.)I manually measured the angles of the joints.It is the only data I have.
Is it possible to do it with ID tool?Or is there any other method to slove the problem?
Thanks every much.This problem has been bothering me for a long time. I need your help.

Hi,

You must measure the reaction forces between the person and the seat or any interaction of the musculoskeletal system with its environment to have meaningful results with ID. Otherwise, one must model these interactions so that they can be accounted in the calculations.
