Compute Impact Score for One Muscle

Perturbs a single muscle and simulates the network dynamics to compute the total displacement of all bones (impact score). The perturbation is applied in the 4th spatial dimension to avoid directional artifacts.

Usage

mskImpactScore(sim, muscle_index)

Arguments

sim

An MSKSimulation object.

muscle_index

Integer index of the muscle to perturb.

Value

Numeric impact score (total displacement summed over all bones).
