Finding AC and SC joint moments during poses

Hello everyone,

I had a question about the acromioclavicular and sternoclavicular joints. How would I go about finding the joint moments for these two joints? Is this even possible in AnyBody?

Thanks,

Brandon

Hi Brandon

It is possible, but not very easy due to the complexity of the shoulder girdle.

It needs to be done using the AnyForceMomentMeasure2, please have a look in the AMMR leg model “LegTLEM\legmoments.any” in principle you need to do the same for the joints you have mentioned.

Please also have look at the wiki please see this entry
