\b Requirements
|
||
|
|
This addon depends on the geometry addon
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\b Description
|
||
|
|
This addon currently contains an optimized library for creating specialized
|
||
|
|
curves that describe phenomenological curves for line-type muscles
|
||
|
|
-fiber active-force-length curve
|
||
|
|
-fiber force-velocity curve
|
||
|
|
-fiber passive-force-length curve
|
||
|
|
-tendon force-length curve
|
||
|
|
and torque-type muscles
|
||
|
|
-active torque-angle curve
|
||
|
|
-active torque-velocity curve
|
||
|
|
-passive torque-angle curve
|
||
|
|
In addition, there is a class that can be used to package the memory and
|
||
|
|
functions required to model torque muscles: Millard2016TorqueMuscle.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
\b Future Development
|
||
|
|
In the near future this library will also contain
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. Torque-type muscle models with
|
||
|
|
a. Elastic tendons
|
||
|
|
b. Short-range-stiffness
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
2. An implementation of the line-type muscle Millard2012Equilibrium muscle model
|
||
|
|
which features the option of using rigid and elastic tendons, and a damped/
|
||
|
|
undamped formulation.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
3. An novel implemenation of 2D muscle wrapping using an obstacle set of
|
||
|
|
smooth convex shapes described using Pythagorean hodographs.
