Abstract: The objective of this study is to develop a two-dimensional dynamic model of the knee joint to simulate its response under sudden impact. The knee joint is modeled as two rigid bodies, ...

Abstract: This paper is a review of static and dynamic models of the human knee joint. Both phenomenological and anatomically based models are discussed. The phenomenological models can be classified ...

Abstract: An anatomical dynamic model consisting of three body segments, femur, tibia and patella, has been developed in order to determine the three-dimensional dynamic response of the human knee. ...
