Coordinating a network of muscles, that have both passive viscoelastic and active properties, to maintain posture and carry out intentional motion is a complex control process. Maintaining rigidity while also being flexible in the face of external perturbations is something that animals are capable of from a young age but is difficult to replicate in machines. Robots that are modeled after animals may be capable of navigating the same complex environments as their living counterparts. I have developed a neuromechanical model of the rat hindlimb to better understand how we might emulate multi-muscle control in robotic systems. This model, developed in a neuromechanical simulation software, allows users to monitor the physical biomechanics of muscles while simultaneously analyzing the activity of the nervous system. I validate this model by comparing the mechanical advantage of individual muscles to other rodent models in the literature. Using the model, I am able to demonstrate for the first time that muscles spanning two joints have complex torque-generating abilities across each of their spanned joints. To explore how individual muscles are coordinated during locomotion, the model is scaled such that it reflects the limb dynamics of animals from a broad range of sizes. I am able to draw conclusions about neural control based on muscular output by calculating the necessary active muscle response to coordinate motion during swing and stance phase. To expedite the development of neuromechanical models in the future, I have created a design tool that streamlines the creation of large-scale synthetic nervous systems. Finally, I demonstrate how this design tool can be utilized to control a multi-muscle model by creating a synthetic nervous system that is designed to control muscle groups. The tools and findings presented in this work establish a foundation for future work in designing multi-muscle neuromechanical simulations.
