Hello everyone! I'm trying to understand the different between Conditional, Moving and Wrap Point. Can someone explain or suggest documents to me in order to understand how they can influence the calculation of Joint Forces and Reactions (used as a point of application of muscle forces).

Thank you in advance :)

There might be something helpful in this paper: Sherman MA, et al. (2013) What is a moment arm? Calculating muscle effectiveness in biomechanical models using generalized coordinates.
