Moco mesh interval

[Mohammadreza Rezaie]

Hi, I have a very stupid question about the number of meshes in Moco. I set the mesh interval to 0.01 (29 meshes), but the time interval of the output is 0.00491379 (59 rows), which is almost double. In general, shouldn't the total number of meshes be identical to the number of rows in the output file? I'm asking because this was the case for MRS.
Any help is greatly appreciated, thank you.

Hi Mohammadreza,

If using the Hermite-Simpson collocation scheme (the default), then there are three time points per mesh interval. This means that there will be 2*N + 1 time points in the trajectory, where N is the number of mesh intervals.

Best,
Nick
