Since RRA uses a forward dynamics simulation (i.e., the model's equations of motion are integrated forward in time), the output kinematics will be consistent accelerations that are great to use in Static Optimization. If you are using RRA results, you don't need to do any additional filtering. Using RRA also has the added benefit of generating a more "dynamically consistent" model and set of kinematics and forces. We are not going to go in depth into RRA in this particular tutorial so if you are unfamiliar with RRA please refer to the User's Guide. You can also complete the tutorial __40__The Strength of Simulation: Estimating Leg Muscle Forces in Stance and Swing to learn more about how to use and troubleshoot with RRA.
