The questions about ID setting files in Version 2.4
Posted: Wed Dec 28, 2011 4:15 pm
Hi, everyone
I have a question about ID setting file in Version 2.4
I noticed that there was a function <forces_to_exclude> in the ID setting file which said "List of forces by individual or grouping name (e.g. All, actuators,muscles, ...) to be excluded when computing model dynamics"
I used the model2392 to test three situations (which changed <force_to_exclude> to ALL or ACTUATORS or MUSCLES) however they all gave me the exactly same output files.
Then I added four knee ligaments (ACL/PCL/MCL/LCL) in model2392 and ran ID step, make the setting file like below:
"<forces_to_exclude> Muscles ACL PCL MCL LCL </forces_to_exclude>"
The joint moments results were all very similar compared with model2392 except for the knee joint moment which was unreasonable large (seem like still include the ligament forces)
so my questions are:
1. why the ID output were exactly same when I changed the content in <force_to_exclude> such as "all" or "muscles" or "actuators" using model 2392?
2. how I can exclude both muscle and ligament force when calculating Inverse Dynamics
Thanks for any suggestion and help.
