[Opensim-announcement] Webinar on Muscle-Driven Simulations of Cycling, New Version of OpenSim, and more

[Matthew Petrucci]

Webinar on Muscle-Driven Simulations and Experimental Data for Cycling

We are pleased to announce our upcoming webinar with Caitlin Clancy from Stanford University entitled “Muscle-Driven Simulations and Experimental Data of Cycling.” She will discuss her team’s approach to generating simulations of cycling using OpenSim Moco<https://opensim-org.github.io/opensim-moco-site/>, and share best practices for iterating and refining her Moco optimization problem. This event will be hosted jointly by the Restore and Mobilize Center on Wednesday, April 17, 2024, at 9:00 AM Pacific Time.

OpenSim 4.5 is Released!

We are pleased to announce the release of OpenSim 4.5. The new software includes:

  *   Improvements to the look and feel of the GUI
  *   Updated Conda packages to make it easier to use the OpenSim API through Python
  *   Additional Moco<https://opensim-org.github.io/opensim-moco-site/> functionality
  *   The introduction of function-based muscle wrapping to speed-up muscle-driven simulations

OpenSim Workshop at the International Symposium on Computer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering
July 30 - August 1, 2024, Vancouver, BC, Canada

Receive guidance from the Restore<http://restore.stanford.edu/> and Mobilize<http://mobilize.stanford.edu/> Centers at an upcoming workshop entitled “OpenSim: Tools for rapid, large-scale musculoskeletal simulations.” In this workshop, we will present how our ecosystem of OpenSim tools for rapidly creating simulations, including from smartphone videos using OpenCap, and new features we’ve added to our Python and Jupyter notebook interfaces make it easier to generate simulations.

Musculoskeletal Modeling Workshop at the European Society of Movement Analysis in Adults and Children Conference
September 11, 2024, Oslo, Norway

Hans Kainz<https://neuromechanics.univie.ac.at/teams/hans-kainz/> and Willi Koller<https://neuromechanics.univie.ac.at/teams/willi-koller/> from the University of Vienna will lead a musculoskeletal modeling workshop at the European Society of Movement Analysis in Adults and Children Conference. Engage with fellow researchers as you tackle challenges like data conversion, model personalization, dynamic simulations, and result interpretation. Whether you're a beginner or an advanced user, this workshop is your chance to advance your musculoskeletal modeling project. Registrations are limited to a maximum of 30 participants and 10 project slots remain. Learn more and register<https://www.esmac2024.org/musculoskeletal-modelling-workshop/>
