A Refined Technique to Calculate Finite Helical Axes From Rigid Body Trackers
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Finite helical axes (FHAs) are a potentially effective tool for joint kinematic analysis. Unfortunately, no straightforward guidelines exist for calculating accurate FHAs using prepackaged six degreeoffreedom (6DOF) rigid ...
In-Situ Fracture Tolerance of the Metatarsals During Quasi-Static Compressive Loading of the Human Foot
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Accidental foot injuries including metatarsal fractures commonly result from compressive loading. The ability of personal protective equipment to prevent these traumatic injuries depends on the understanding of metatarsal ...
Characterizing In-Situ Metatarsal Fracture Risk During Simulated Workplace Impact Loading
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Metatarsal fractures represent the most common traumatic foot injury; however, metatarsal fracture thresholds remain poorly characterized, which affects performance targets for protective footwear. This experimental study ...
