Muscle and joint biomechanics - simple educational model

You can interact with the simulation:

• Click on the muscle (click fast!) to make it contract
• Click on the muscle's insertion to move it along the bone. See how changing the insertion changes the weight that can be lifted!
• Hover your cursor over the load and use the mouse wheel to increase or decrease its weight.
• Hover your cursor over the muscle and use the mouse wheel to increase or decrease its size, modifying its force-production capability.

This project is a simple interactive simulation showing the biomechanics of a muscle acting on a joint. It has been created for educational purpose.
