I want to know about how to simulate when external force is applied.

[Daichi Saito]

I am using McKibbenActuator in OpenSim. Is it possible to find out how much the muscle resists when an external force is applied to the model and it is moved? When a constant external force is applied, it continues to move. In reality, I think the muscles will resist and become immobile.
The model is https://simtk.org/projects/finger

Hi Daichi,

Do you mind clarifying your question? Are you applying a force and you want to simulate what the muscles and passive force would do to compensate for that force? Do you have any experimental data?

All the best,

Mike
