Simulating Sit to Stand: Biomechanical Insights and Practical Tips

Dr. Rob Siston and Elena Caruthers of Ohio State University describe their study on simulating sit to stand and share tips they learned along the way for model building and using static optimization.

They first discuss musculoskeletal modeling: how to choose the appropriate model for the motion you are analyzing, how to build a custom OpenSim musculoskeletal model if an appropriate model does not already exist, and why these steps are especially important if you are not simulating gait. They then demonstrate how they used our own custom full body model to examine muscle forces during a sit to stand transfer. Along with their major findings from this study, they share different techniques they used to validate and improve their results from static optimization.
