Joint contact loads

Post by Ajay Sonar » Tue Dec 28, 2010 12:19 pm

Hi Ayman,

The OpenSim documentation mentions that you can calculate the joint contact loads from the estimated muscle forces but does not show how to do it. Do you (or anyone else) have any example/documentation on how to perform this analysis.

Thanks,
Ajay

Hi Ajay,

Please check the example model and setup files posted on the Wiki page http://wiki.simtk.org/opensim/ under the link
"Joint Reaction Analysis Example". Let us know how it goes or if you continue to have questions.

Best,
-Ayman
