Abstract: Musculoskeletal models based on inertial motion capture (IMC) and ground reaction force (GRF) prediction hold great potential for field-based risk assessment of manual material handling (MMH). However, previous evaluations ...

Abstract: Knowledge of the muscle, ligament, and joint forces is important when planning orthopedic surgeries. Since these quantities cannot be measured in vivo under normal circumstances, the best alternative is to estimate them ...

Abstract: The aim of this study was to generate a subject-specific musculoskeletal muscle model, based on isometric and isovelocity measurements of the whole lower extremity. A two-step optimization procedure is presented for ...
