Glasgow-Maastricht Foot Model ligament properties

Hi,
I'm trying to use the GM foot model uploaded in the GitHub.
To make the model work in the environment I'm planning to, I'm trying to understand the contents in the model.
So, I'm searching for the literature that is related to the development of this model. Unfortunately, It's hard to find.
I'd like to know how the properties of the muscles and ligaments are acquired. Is it acquired by one cadaveric specimen or by many?
Where can I get the literature or information about it?
It would be thankful to let me know.

Best regards,
Son

Hi @ssroom9 and welcome to the forum!

My colleague Søren gave an extended elaboration on some aspects of the model here which might help on some of your questions.

Furthermore, there are some references to the muscle parameters inside some of the model files.
Try to look at the headers of the MusPar.any and MusParSimple.any files.

Best regards,
Bjørn

Hi, Bjorn!

Thanks for your quick reply!
The link you provided and the headers of the .any files are useful information.
Can you let me know the .any files (or else) to know the parameters of the ligaments as the parameters in MusPar.any and MusParSimple.any?

Best regards,
Son
