How to insert external forces
Posted: Sat Jun 12, 2021 1:14 pm
Hello,
I've been trying to run a static optimization tool on the arm 26 model, It ran perfectly fine, but now I'm trying to add external forces at arbitrary points on the model, I'm finding it hard to input the location of the external force, and the amount of force being exerted, How can I input those data, I know I need to have an xml file for it but I don't know how to create a file that would have the stored data (location of the force, amount of force etc.)
Should I have an excel file with all the data there or what?
I am still a beginner with OpenSim, so anything is helpful at the moment.
Thanks!
