The 3 loading models proposed by [Grosse et al. (2007)](https://doi.org/10.1002/ar.20568) have been implemented in python with a special care about efficiency. In the simplest model – the Uniform-Traction model – the total traction force $`\bar{F}`$ applied by a muscle on the bone is uniformly distributed on the surface mesh of the muscle attachment. For each triangle of this mesh, the traction is assumed to be directed towards a focal node modelling the opposite muscle attachment (see Figure 1).
