Whole-Cell Computational Model of Mycoplasma genitalium
- The goal of this project was to develop the first detailed, "whole-cell" computational model of the entire life cycle of living organism, <i>Mycoplasma genitalium</i>. The model describes the dynamics of every molecule over the entire life cycle and accounts for the specific function of every annotated gene product.
We anticipate that whole-cell models will be critical for synthetic biology and personalized medicine. Please see the project website <a href="http://wholecell.org">wholecell.org</a> and the Downloads page to explore the whole-cell knowledge base and simulations and obtain the model code. | |

Simulation of Constrained Musculoskeletal Systems in Task Space
- Objective: This work proposes an operational task space formalization of constrained musculoskeletal systems, motivated by its promising results in the field of robotics.
Methods: The change of representation requires different algorithms for solving the inverse and forward dynamics simulation in the task space domain. We propose an extension to the Direct Marker Control and an adaptation of the Computed Muscle Control algorithms for solving the inverse kinematics and muscle redundancy problems respectively.
Results: Experimental evaluation demonstrates that this framework is not only successful in dealing with the inverse dynamics problem, but also provides an intuitive way of studying and designing simulations, facilitating assessment prior to any experimental data collection.
Significance: The incorporation of constraints in the derivation unveils an important extension of this framework towards addressing systems that use absolute coordinates and topologies that contain closed kinematic chains. Task space projection reveals a more intuitive encoding of the motion planning problem, allows for better correspondence between observed and estimated variables, provides the means to effectively study the role of kinematic redundancy and, most importantly, offers an abstract point of view and control, which can be advantageous towards further integration with high level models of the precommand level.
Conclusion: Task-based approaches could be adopted in the design of simulation related to the study of constrained musculoskeletal systems.
The source code of the project can be found at: https://github.com/mitkof6/opensim-task-space.git
The new API of task space and constraint projection for OpenSim V4.0 is available at: https://github.com/mitkof6/task-space

Examining Muscle Forces during Sit to Stand Transfer with Full Body Model 2016
- Our STS transfer analysis required a three-dimensional musculoskeletal model that had lower extremities, flexibility in the lumbar vertebrae, and arms. Capturing the dynamics of the lower back and arms was critical for 1) ensuring more dynamically accurate calculations of muscle forces and induced accelerations and 2) developing benchmark simulations for young healthy adults using a model that could be applied in future studies to capture possible compensatory strategies (e.g., the use of arms or torso) in various populations completing the STS transfer. Because no previously developed model met these criteria, we created a three-dimensional musculoskeletal model, the Full Body Model 2016, by combining these models: Lower Limb Model 2010, Musculoskeletal Model of the Lumbar Spine, MoBL-ARMS Upper Limb Model, and Head and Neck Musculoskeletal Biomechanics Model. It has 46 degrees of freedom with 194 Hill-type muscle-tendon actuators. A description of how the model was assembled and evaluated is in Appendix 1 of our manuscript, Muscle Forces and Their Contributions to Vertical and Horizontal Acceleration of the Center of Mass during Sit-to-Stand Transfer in Young, Healthy Adults (see publications).

Predictive Simulation of Standing Long Jumps
- This project is aimed at creating a predictive simulation framework for standing long jumps and studying how using a how such a framework can be used to study performance differences due to various perturbations.
In particular, we have used this framework to study how simulation can be used to aid in device design. In our publication, we first show that the framework could generate a simulation that captured salient features of a standing long jump, including kinematics and kinetics. We then used the framework to design active and passive devices to increase simulated jump performance. | |

Neuromusculoskeletal Modeling (NMSM) Pipeline
- <div style="display:inline-block"><a href="https://nmsm.rice.edu"><img src="https://nmsm.rice.edu/img/nmsm-pipeline-social-card.jpg" style="float:left;max-width:calc(100% - 40px);"></a></div>
Full project information is available at: https://nmsm.rice.edu. Please direct any inquiries about the NMSM Pipeline to us by posting your questions on this SimTK project forum or emailing nmsm@rice.edu.
Neuromusculoskeletal Modeling (NMSM) Pipeline is a set of tools for personalizing models and designing treatments for movement impairments and other pathologies.
The NMSM Pipeline consists of two toolsets:
Model Personalization - Personalize joint, muscle-tendon, neural control, and ground contact model properties.
Treatment Optimization - Design treatments using personalized models and an optimal control methodology.
At this time, Treatment Optimization requires the use of <a href="https://www.gpops2.com/">GPOPS-II optimal control solver</a>.
The NMSM Pipeline is written in MATLAB to lower the barrier for entry and to facilitate accessibility to the core codebase. We encourage users to modify the code to meet their needs.
The core codebase and examples are available to download for use in research. At this time, we ask that you wait to publish any work that uses the NMSM Pipeline until the journal article reference for the software is available. Please get in touch with us if you have any questions.
If you need help or want to start a discussion, please use the SimTK forum for this project.
Note: This project is a living entity. Updates will be made available as the Pipeline, examples, and tutorials are developed further and improved. | |

LoopTK: Protein Loop Kinematic Toolkit
- Analyzing the motion of flexible protein loops is becoming increasingly important in understanding the various roles that proteins play in human body. LoopTK is a C++ based object-oriented toolkit which models the kinematics of a protein chain and provides methods to explore its motion space. In LoopTK, a protein chain is modeled as a robot manipulator with bonds acting as arms and the dihedral degree of freedoms acting as joints.
LoopTK is designed specifically to model the kinematics of protein loops, but it can be used to analyze the motion of any part of the protein chain. LoopTK provides methods for sampling the conformation space of protein loops as well as the self motion space of a loop. Example applications for LoopTK include x-ray crystallography, homology modeling, and drug design.
LoopTK was developed in close collaboration with the Joint Center for Structural Genomics (JCSG) at the Stanford Linear Accelerator Center. Now a part of the JCSG's protein structure determination process, loopTK models missing protein fragments into experimental data (http://smb.slac.stanford.edu/XpleoServer/Xpleo.jsp).

MoSART: NMR-based Biomolecular Structure Computation
- MoSART (Molecular Structure Analysis and Refinement Tool) is designed for computing biomolecular structure from NMR data. The goal of the project is to create an easily extensible package that will broaden the community of developers of new approaches to computation of biomolecular structure from NMR data. A key feature is support for low-resolution (two particles per residue for proteins, 3/4 particles per residue for nucleic acids) force fields, useful when geometrical restraints are sparse. These facilitate determination of the overall fold during early stages of an NMR investigation, or starting points for hierarchical structure determination. Future plans include additional support for low resolution geometrical constraints derived from NMR and chemical footprinting to support membrane protein structure determination. | |

Stretch Reflexes in OpenSim
- This project involves developing and evaluating new model components in OpenSim that represent stretch reflexes. Our planned design is intended to be sufficiently general-purpose that it can used to simulate normal, healthy stretch reflex responses as well as pathological conditions, such as spasticity. Our design separates the sensory components from the response components to provide greater flexibility for researchers to implement specific types of muscle spindle models and neural response mechanisms. | |

Relational database for data analysis and integrated OpenSim simulations.
- OpenSim relies on morphometric measures, motion capture signals, and clinical data to simulate and analyze muscle dynamics. While this biomechanical tool is sufficiently robust to analyze single trials and to batch-process selected multiple trials, the subject-specific model scaling and the relevant data has to be manually picked and analyzed. The relational database that combines meta- and signal- information can automate both the model scaling and the automation of data analysis. The goal of this project is to integrate SciBox relational database toolbox with OpenSim environment. BOXsci is a lightweight relational database with transparent scripting library and graphical user interface implemented fully in Matlab, the data analysis package of choice in academia and private industry. BOXsci consists of a single library for data storage, access, and analysis that is freely available for academic, research and non-profit organizations. We will create pipeline interactions between recorded biomechanical signals, task and subject specific information (e.g. model composition and morphometric measurements) and the environment of OpenSim to perform inverse and forward dynamic simulations, and to store results within the relational database of SciBox. | |
