Change location of a joint
Posted: Thu Oct 03, 2013 3:31 am
Hello,
I'm trying to do a simulation of a prosthesis (the shoulder joint) surgery.
I have changed the location of the joint in the model, but I don't know if I have to change also the rotation axis, or another parameter.
I mean, I want to start my analysis on a model that will be a patient after surgery, so it will have a prosthesis instead of his own shoulder joint.
I don't know if only changing the joint location, the model will represent correctly that situation.
I also don't know if what I'm trying to do is possible to do with OpenSim.
Thank you,
Miriam
