Dear Opensim experts,
We have a dynamic model of an actuator (+ mechanism) and we want to implement this actuator in the OpenSim environment to be used in the musculoskeletal model.
I would be very grateful if you could guide me about how we can construct our specific actuator with its own dynamics using OpenSim.
Also, if it is hard to implement such an actuator in OpenSim, is there any way to connect OpenSim with the Simulink?
Ali.

Hi Ali,

Pretty sure you would have to implement this via a plugin (https://simtk-confluence.stanford.edu:8 ... %27s+Guide) coding in C++. I've found the easiest way to do this with other custom classes (like a force) is to find a similar object from the class that's already implemented in Opensim and edit the code from this.
