Update Maximum Contraction Velocity in an OpenSim Model — update_max_contraction_velocity

This function loads an OpenSim model, modifies the maximum contraction velocity of all muscles, and optionally writes the modified model to a file or returns it.

Usage

update_max_contraction_velocity_osim(
  model_input_file = "Baseline_model.osim",
  model_output_file = "Baseline_model_stronger.osim",
  new_max = 20,
  write_file = TRUE,
  return_object = FALSE
)

Arguments

model_input_file: Path to the input `.osim` model file. Defaults to `"Baseline_model.osim"`.
model_output_file: Path to the output `.osim` file. Defaults to `"Baseline_model_stronger.osim"`.
new_max: Numeric value specifying the new maximum contraction velocity for all muscles. Defaults to `20`.
write_file: Logical; whether to write the modified model to a file. Defaults to `TRUE`.
return_object: Logical; whether to return the modified model object. Defaults to `FALSE`.

Value

If `return_object = TRUE`, returns the modified OpenSim model object. Otherwise, returns `NULL` invisibly.
