Felix, do you mean that I can set the initial condition in world file ?

You should precise your question. In the URDF you describe the robot itself with its inner joints in it's zero'ed state. Its position and velocity inside the world has nothing to do with URDF and is made up through tf, usually through mapping if not manual.
