joint reaction analysis in C++
Posted: Fri Sep 12, 2014 8:27 am
Good morning every one,
I am trying to compute the joint reaction analysis in C++ because I want to implement the results of this analysis as a constraint in the static optimization.
Briefly I calculate the muscle force from the static optimisation (by importing an xml file), then I use them to calculate the joint reaction force at a given joint.
So I do not use the xml file the computing of the joint reaction in my C++ program.
My problem is that when I calculate the joint reaction forces with the GUI, by using the same muscle forces than those obtained in my C++ program,
I do no find the same values of joint reaction Forces.
I have check many things such as be sure that.
-the states positions are the same
-the external forces are the same
-the muscle forces are the same
please find below my code which is written in the optimizationTarget.cpp File. In this case; the joint reaction forces are just calculated
but not included in the constraints.
can anyone tell me if something appears to be wrong ?
best regards
yoann
