Abstract: The external knee adduction moment (KAM) measured during gait is an indicator of tibiofemoral joint osteoarthritis progression and various strategies have been proposed to lower it. Gait retraining ...

Abstract: Validation is critical if clinicians are to use musculoskeletal models to optimize treatment of individual patients with a variety of musculoskeletal disorders. This paper provides an update on the annual Grand Challenge ...

Abstract: Recent explorations of knee biomechanics have benefited from computational modeling, specifically leveraging advancements in finite element analysis and rigid body dynamics of joint and tissue mechanics. A large number of ...

Abstract: The ability to predict patientspecific joint contact and muscle forces accurately could improve the treatment of walkingrelated disorders. Muscle synergy analysis, which decomposes a large number of muscle electromyographic ...

Abstract: The use of computational modeling to investigate knee joint biomechanics has increased exponentially over the last few decades. Developing computational models is a creative process where decisions have to be made, subject ...
