In MorphoFun/kraken: Analyses for bone biomechanics

Remove sections of the data where there is overlap

Description

Identifies portions of the dataset where two occurrences overlap and replaces with NAs.

Usage

removeOverlaps(df, primary, secondary, filmRate, ...)

Arguments

df	A data.frame containing variables of interest.
primary	A data.frame containing two numeric values that correspond to the beginning and end of an event (e.g., stance phase of forelimb).
secondary	A data.frame containing two numeric values that correspond to the beginning and end of an event (e.g., stance phase of hind limb) that would affect interpretations of the primary event.
filmRaate	A numeric value of the filming rate.

Details

These procedures follow the methodology used in Kawano and Blob (2013) and Kawano et al. 2016.
