Compute Model Based Data: Model Moment of Inertia

To quantify the acceleration necessary to overcome the model’s inertia, a very useful value to calculate is the model moment of inertia. In this tutorial, we show you how to calculate it in Visual3d.

Model Moment of Inertia

In this tutorial, we explain what a model moment of inertia is, and how it applies to the full biomechanical model in Visual3D.

Segment progression angle

Segment progression angle is an interesting method of calculating the angle between a segment and the direction of motion. Typically used for foot kinematics, but could be useful in other ways.

Compute Model Based Data: Model Center of Gravity

The model center of gravity is a Compute Model Based Data calculation that gives an estimate of the center of gravity based on the biomechanical model in Visual3D.

Model Center of Gravity

The center of gravity could be a key data point for a project you are working on, or possibly, a stepping stone to calculate another piece of information. In this tutorial, we explain what a model center of gravity is, and how it is calculated in Visual3D.
