Description
The fiberVelocity computation in RigidTendonMuscle does not take the pennation angular velocity into account. It appears to be correct only if the pennation angle is zero, which is not generally the case.
The fibervelocity computed by the RigidTendonMuscle is set to equal the muscle lengtheningspeed:
This would be correct if the pennation angle is zero. But the pennation angle is generally not zero:
It looks like the correct fibervelocity calculation can be found in Millard2012EquilibriumMuscle, with the ignore_tendon_compliance
set to true:
