Sensitivity of Muscle Force Estimations to Changes in Muscle Input Parameters Using Nonlinear Optimization Approaches
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The purpose of this study was to analyze the sensitivity of muscle force calculations to changes in muscle input parameters. Force sharing between two synergistic muscles was derived analytically ...
Erratum: “Effect of Fluid Boundary Conditions on Joint Contact Mechanics and Applications to the Modelling of Osteoarthritic Joints,” J. Biomech. Eng., 126(2), pp. 220–225
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: In our recent paper, we studied the joint contact mechanics between two symmetric, spherical, cortical bones covered with biphasic, linearly elastic cartilage layers. We analyzed the effects of ...
Effect of Fluid Boundary Conditions on Joint Contact Mechanics and Applications to the Modeling of Osteoarthritic Joints
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The long-term goal of our research is to understand the mechanism of osteoarthritis (OA) initiation and progress through experimental and theoretical approaches. In previous theoretical models, ...
Importance of Collagen Orientation and Depth-Dependent Fixed Charge Densities of Cartilage on Mechanical Behavior of Chondrocytes
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The collagen network and proteoglycan matrix of articular cartilage are thought to play an important role in controlling the stresses and strains in and around chondrocytes, in regulating the ...
