[Algorithms] Musculoskeletal - moment arms, for motion capture

[Sindharta T. <zar...@ya...>]

Hi all,

I am wondering if someone could have a little
discussion with me about musculoskeletal data. 
I already have musculoskeletal data which I believe is
good and quite complete, and is listed on
"http://mms.tudelft.nl/morph_data/main.htm".

I want to calculate the moment arm of each muscle, and
I already know one way to do it now,
which is to calculate the perpendicular distance from
line of force (the distance between origin and
insertion coordinates) to the axis of rotation
(joint). I am wondering if there are any other ways
for doing that ?

I am planning to use that data to modify or edit
motion capture data, which I believe, will be very
useful if could be implemented in games.

I think that is all for now, and thank you for your
attention.

Sincerely,

Sindharta Tanuwijaya
