  16. Induced Acceleration Analysis Equations of motion M: Mass matrix Q: Generalized coordinates G: Gravity V; Coriolis and centrifugal effects S: Generalized force due to contact elements S: Muscle force F: Generalized force (muscle force) R: Force transformation materix (moment arms)

  17. Induced Acceleration Analysis • Stiff 3D linear and torsional springs approximate a weld constraint

  18. Induced Acceleration Analysis • Replaces the contribution of contact • with an appropriate kinematic constraint. • Kinematic constraint reaction forces are • resolved simultaneously with the constrained • equations of motion

  19. Induced Acceleration Analysis Model Contact (Allows relative rotation) Pure rolling constraint on a rolling body in contact with a plane defined on another body (Hamner et al., 2010)

  20. Induced Acceleration Analysis Verify superposition Contribution to com acceleration (Liu, 2006) Kinematic or Bodykinematic Analysis

  21. Induced Acceleration Analysis • How to use IA: • COM vs angular kinematics • Requires Muscle force distribution (e.g. SO) • Does not work in case of missing contact forces (e.g. unilateral forces during double stance)

  22. Example of IAA • Gait2393 model • Run: • Scale • IK • (RRA) • SO • Analysis
