I am trying to build a Sensitivity Analysis to document OpenSim's performance for my application.

My plan was to produce a variety of modifying activation patterns to then compare the kinematics of all of these patterns. However, if I want to do this, I would need to have a way to automatically run a set of Forward Dynamics simulations and PointKinematics analysis.

Does anyone have any pointers?

Dear Mark,

As of now, Sensitivity is not a built-in analysis/tool in OpenSim, however what you can do is to run the forward tool from inside a program and have the program modify the excitation patterns and/or setup files.
Please check the main program under the distribution ($OpenSimInstall/sdk/examples/main.cpp) for an example.

You could also run "forward.exe" from a Matlab script if you find that easier.

Hope this helps,
