RISA Cervico Thoraco Lumbar Multibody Dynamic Model for the Estimation of Joint Loads and Muscle Forces
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Computational musculoskeletal models have been developed to predict mechanical joint loads on the human spine, such as the forces and moments applied to vertebral and facet joints and the forces that act on ligaments and ...
Biomechanical Behaviors in Three Types of Spinal Cord Injury Mechanisms
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Clinically, spinal cord injuries (SCIs) are radiographically evaluated and diagnosed from plain radiographs, computed tomography (CT), and magnetic resonance imaging. However, it is difficult to conclude that radiographic ...
Comparative Evaluation Between Anatomic and Nonanatomic Lateral Ligament Reconstruction Techniques in the Ankle Joint: A Computational Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Biomechanical studies have indicated that the conventional nonanatomic reconstruction techniques for lateral ankle sprain (LAS) tend to restrict subtalar joint motion compared to intact ankle joints. Excessive restriction ...
Biomechanical Effects on Cervical Spinal Cord and Nerve Root Following Laminoplasty for Ossification of the Posterior Longitudinal Ligament in the Cervical Spine: A Comparison Between Open-Door and Double-Door Laminoplasty Using Finite Element Analysis
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Many clinical case series have reported the predisposing factors for C5 palsy and have presented comparisons of the two types of laminoplasty. However, there have been no biomechanical studies focusing on cervical spinal ...
