Inertia tenson

Post by Araceli Luque Martín-Sacristán » Fri Jan 15, 2021 9:20 am

I am incrementing the muscle mass in my model and therefore the mass of each segment. I wonder if I need to change the inertia tensor proportionally or, is it a normalized tensor by the segment mass?

Bests,
Araceli.

The Scale Tool will adjust the inertial properties for you. Please see the comments in the Body::scaleInertialProperties() method (https://github.com/opensim-org/opensim- ... y.cpp#L206).
