Hello to all,

who can please tell me if the joint reaction force (force between two
segments) is given in the local, deformed configuration or in the
global orientation?

Thanks,

Thomas

Hi Thomas

The reactions forces of a joint are given in the coordinate system of the
first mentioned reference frame of the joint. So only in the case where
this reference frame is the global one, the reactions are given in the
global coordinate system.
