% This is a Matlab implementation of an example optimal control
% problem (2-D walking) orginally created in C++ by Antoine Falisse
% (see: example2DWalking.cpp).
%
% This example features two different optimal control problems:
% - The first problem is a tracking simulation of walking.
% - The second problem is a predictive simulation of walking.
%
% The code is inspired from Falisse A, Serrancoli G, Dembia C, Gillis J,
% De Groote F: Algorithmic differentiation improves the computational
% efficiency of OpenSim-based trajectory optimization of human movement.
% PLOS One, 2019.
%
% Model
% -----
% The model described in the file '2D_gait.osim' included in this file is a
% modified version of the 'gait10dof18musc.osim' available within OpenSim. We
% replaced the moving knee flexion axis by a fixed flexion axis, replaced the
% Millard2012EquilibriumMuscles by DeGrooteFregly2016Muscles, and added
% SmoothSphereHalfSpaceForces (two contacts per foot) to model the
% contact interactions between the feet and the ground.
%
% Do not use this model for research. The path of the gastroc muscle contains
% an error--the path does not cross the knee joint.
%
% Data
% ----
% The coordinate data included in the 'referenceCoordinates.sto' comes from
% predictive simulations generated in Falisse et al. 2019. As such,
% they deviate slightly from typical experimental gait data.

% Set up a coordinate tracking problem where the goal is to minimize the
% difference between provided and simulated coordinate values and speeds (and
% ground reaction forces), as well as to minimize an effort cost (squared
% controls). The provided data represents half a gait cycle. Endpoint
% constraints enforce periodicity of the coordinate values (except for
% pelvis tx) and speeds, coordinate actuator controls, and muscle activations.
