Co Simulation of Neuromuscular Dynamics and Knee Mechanics During Human Walking
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This study introduces a framework for cosimulating neuromuscular dynamics and knee joint mechanics during gait. A knee model was developed that included 17 ligament bundles and a representation of the distributed contact ...
The Influence of Partial and Full Thickness Tears on Infraspinatus Tendon Strain Patterns
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Tears on the bursal and articular sides of the rotator cuff tendons are known to behave differently and strain is thought to play a role in this difference. This study investigates the effect of tear location on the changes ...
The Influence of Component Alignment and Ligament Properties on Tibiofemoral Contact Forces in Total Knee Replacement
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The study objective was to investigate the influence of coronal plane alignment and ligament properties on total knee replacement (TKR) contact loads during walking. We created a subjectspecific knee model of an 83yearold ...
Patella Apex Influences Patellar Ligament Forces and Ratio
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The relationship between three-dimensional shape and patellofemoral mechanics is complicated. The Wiberg patella classification is a method of distinguishing shape differences in the axial plane of the patella that can be ...
