Biomechanics plays a significant yet complex role in osteoarthritis (OA) onset and
progression. Identifying alterations in biomechanical factors and their complex interactions is …

Many biomedical, orthopaedic, and industrial applications are emerging that will benefit from
personalized neuromusculoskeletal models. Applications include refined diagnostics …

The rising importance of movement analysis led to the development of more complex
biomechanical models to describe in detail the human motion patterns. The models scaled …

This paper reviews model-based and model-free approaches for continuous prediction of
human joint motion using surface electromyography (EMG) signals. The review focuses on …

Static optimization is commonly employed in musculoskeletal modeling to estimate muscle
and joint loading; however, the ability of this approach to predict antagonist muscle activity at …

Mechanics play a critical–but not sole–role in the pathogenesis of osteoarthritis, and recent
research has highlighted how mechanical constructs are relevant at the cellular, joint, and …

Objective: Using a musculoskeletal modelling framework, we aimed to (1) estimate knee
joint loading using static optimization (SO);(2) explore different calibration functions in …

Background Calibrated electromyography (EMG)-driven musculoskeletal models can
provide insight into internal quantities (eg, muscle forces) that are difficult or impossible to …

Excessive loads at lower limb joints can lead to pain and degenerative diseases. Altering
joint loads with muscle coordination retraining might help to treat or prevent clinical …

Flatfoot is linked to secondary lower limb joint problems, such as patellofemoral pain. This
study aimed to investigate the influence of medial posting insoles on the joint mechanics of …
