I am also doing CMC simulation of normal gait and activations are abnormally fluctuating for a specific subject.
I have tried the CMC with a model with increased strength but it was not resolved.
Any possible resolutions or suggestions?

Perhaps forces are being generated to counteract gravity or due to passive forces in ligaments or antagonistic muscles?
