Meniscus model

Post by Nirav Maniar » Wed May 20, 2020 5:47 pm

Hi Colin,

Thanks for making this framework available, I have found it very interesting and useful.

I noticed from you previous publications that you have also included the meniscus in the knee joint model for some work, but the meniscus is not present in the original Lenhart model. I tracked down a model that includes the meniscus from your Github, but this appears to be from the OpenSim v3 and is not compatible with OpenSim 4.0 (and hence the framework that you have released). I have tried inferring the meniscus from your OpenSim v3 model to the Lenhart model, but have found this process to be non-trivial.

I am wondering if you have a version of the Lenhart model with the meniscus included, that is compatible with the OpenSim 4.0 JAM framework?

Cheers,
Nirav
