Since CMC can take a long time to run, consider doing a test run with a reduced final_time to ensure CMC will be reporting what you need. |
Computing metabolic cost
The provided model includes a "whole-body" metabolic probe, which reports the total metabolic cost of all muscles in the model (see the files included with CMC results ending in "_ProbeReporter_probes.sto").The probe reports instantaneous metabolic power, so you will need to integrate the resulting time series to determine the total amount of energy consumed during the simulation. Please see the Umberger2010MuscleMetabolicsProbe doxygen page for descriptions of the properties associated with the probe. (Note, in particular, the "report_total_metabolics_only" property.)
