BodyKinematics output general question

Hi all,

I would like to clarify something with the BodyKinematics analysis. For each body (e.g. femur_r), there is a femur_r_Y and femur_r_Oy column in the output. Does this represent the value about the body CoM & body origin respectively?

Cheers,

Tim

Hi Tim, I believe femur_r_Y is the Y coordinate of the femur's center of mass (in the global coordinate system) and femur_r_Oy is the orientation of the femur's Y axis with respect to the global coordinate system using a fixed body sequence of rotations.
