Difference between Input and output controls file in Forward Dynamics (FD) Tool
Posted: Thu Apr 25, 2024 5:07 am
Hi,
In order to run FD we provide CMC muscle controls and states. However can anyone please explain to me what does the output controls file exactly give after FD. I expected both input and output controls to be the same, but that is not the case. There is a drastic change between the two. Also is there a way to know how much of actuation from reserve actuators are provided? Because I cannot see the reserve actuators mentioned in any of the output files after performing the forward dynamics.
Thanks and Regards,
Shivangi
