Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Gait2d_osim()

function Gait2d_osim	(	in	opensimfile,
		in	scale_factors,
		in	bodymass,
		in	varargin
	)

Constructor setting default Gait2d_osim object.

Initializes the model and builds and initializes the mex function. The mex functions can be also build with other options if Gait2d_osim.getMexFiles(osimName) is called before the constructor is called.

Sets a new default for Gait2d_osim.mExtraScaleFactor: 10 Nm

The standard model can be called using:

Gait2d_osim('gait10dof18musc.osim')

The osim file must be in the matlab path.

Parameters

scale_factors	String, List or Float: .trc marker
bodyweight	Float: bodyweight in kg
opensimfile	String: Opensim file with path, name and extension

Return values

obj	Gait2d_osim class object

Member Function Documentation

add_listeners()

function add_listeners ( in  obj )

protected

Function to add Listeners to the obj.

• PostSet event listeners enable reinitialition for mex with new parameters.

Parameters

obj	Gait2d_osim class object

computeMomentArms()

function computeMomentArms ( in  obj, in  range_muscleMoment, in  examine, in  name  )

protected

Function to generate muscle length polynomials from Opensim muscle paths.

For each muscle, the generalized coordinates are moved through their entire range, in a specified number of steps (currently 6). So for a muscle that spans 4 dofs, we will examine 6^4 = 1296 poses. For each pose, the Opensim API is used to obtain the moment arms of the muscle. Also the API is used to obtain the muscle-tendon length when all generalized coordinates are zero.

Stepwise regression is done on the moment arm data to produce the best set of polynomial terms. The addition of terms stops when one of the following is true:

1. RMS difference between moment arms from Opensim and polynomial, relative to the largest moment arm, is less than "relerror" (currently 0.05)
2. Adding another term would decrease the RMS difference by less than "minerrorchange" (currently 0.01)
3. The maximum number of terms (currently 40) has been reached.

The examine option is intended for model developers to inspect the polynomials and make sure they are good enough. When regenerating polynomials for a model that has already been tested, the examine and name options should not be used.

Saves results at strrep(settings.osimfile, '.osim', '_momentarms.mat')

Parameters

obj	Gait2d_osim class object
range_muscleMoment	Table: Ranges of DOFs which were used to fit polynomials
examine	(optional, default 0) when 1: plots results for each muscle and pauses for inspection

getCoP()

function getCoP ( in  obj, in  grf  )

inherited

Function to calculate the center of pressure.

It solves the center of pressure (COP) coordinates from: COP x F + Ty = M, where COP is a point in the XZ plane and Ty is the "free moment" on the Y axis. expand the equation:

1. COPy * Fz - COPz * Fy + 0 = Mx
2. COPz * Fx - COPx * Fz + Ty = My
3. COPx * Fy - COPy * Fx + 0 = Mz

Use COPy = 0, to get COPx = Mz / Fy and COPz = -Mx / Fy

For 2D, COPz will be 0.

Parameters

obj	Model class object
grf	Double vector: Ground contact vector containing Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz (right), and Fx, Fy, Fz, Mx, My, Mz (left) (12)

getDynamics()

function getDynamics ( in  obj, in  x, in  xdot, in  u  )

virtual

This function calls the mex file of gait2d_osim.c: [f, dfdx, dfdxdot, dfdumus, dfdMextra] = obj.hdlMEX('Dynamics',x,xdot,umus,Mextra);

with the neural excitation umus and the extra torques Mextra.

The dynamic residuals will be between fmin and fmax when inputs satisfy system dynamics : fmin <= f(x,dx/dt,umus,Mextra) <= fmax
