 The calculation of Joint Moment, Joint Power, and Joint Force refer to the proximal end of the segment selected. For convenience we have mapped segment names to joint names automatically because we assumed that users would find it more intuitive. The calculation of Joint Moment, Joint Power, and Joint Force refer to the proximal end of the segment selected.
