Knee_medial, lateral force displacement

Hi there,
I ran a Knee_force_example simulation for a Squat
In the simulation code, the distance between the knee force components (medial, lateral) and center is specified as 0.03m
I have a question about the reason behind this choice
Was it applied simply for the sake of simulation simplicity or is there a another specific reason?
Are there any related references or papers that provide insight into this?

Hi

This distance of 0.03 m is an approximation to find the contact between the femoral condyles with the tibial plateau. It's just a simplified solution to illustrate the method. You are welcome to update this value to better suit your subject.

Best regards,
Dave
