Finding muscle forces with experimental data.

Post by Zach Contois » Tue Mar 30, 2021 7:35 pm

Hello,
I'm trying to find the tensile force of the Soleus muscle in a simulation to compare with data I've collected with accelerometers. I have access to motion capture, EMG, and force plate data, but I'm having a hard time utilizing all that data to find the force in the muscle. Do I need to run the Forward Dynamic Tool to have access to that?

Thanks for any advice.
