Inquiry of built-in model 'Gait10dof18musc'
Posted: Tue Jul 16, 2024 9:18 pm
Dear All,
I feel a liitle confused about the model file in a built-in model of OpenSim 4.4 (in folder: ...\Models\Gait10dof18musc). The follows are part of the code in .osim file:
My confusion is that, in definition of knee joint, why 'Location of the joint in the parent body (femur)' and 'Location of the joint in the child body (tibia)' are all [0 0 0]. Seem this is different from the actual condition? Thank you very much if you can help to illustrate!
