Hi All
I'm running Static Optimization on a dynamic side-step trial and I get this warning in the message window for certain time-points:
time = 0.204 Performance =1413.67 Constraint violation = 8.84439e-005
Thelen2003Muscle::computeForce, muscle med_gas_r force < 0 at time = 0.204
Thelen2003Muscle::computeForce, muscle lat_gas_r force < 0 at time = 0.204
Thelen2003Muscle::computeForce, muscle soleus_r force < 0 at time = 0.204
Thelen2003Muscle::computeForce, muscle med_gas_r force < 0 at time = 0.208
Thelen2003Muscle::computeForce, muscle lat_gas_r force < 0 at time = 0.208
Thelen2003Muscle::computeForce, muscle soleus_r force < 0 at time = 0.208
The simulation clearly hasn't failed at this time period, so is this a problem that needs to be solved? If so, are my muscles too strong? I have doubled the muscle strength (max isometric force) from the standard Gait_2392 model to assist the model in simulation the dynamic running movement. I'd rather increase the muscle force than have to rely on reserve actuators to create the motion.
Thanks,
