Knee adduction moment and medial contact force--facts about their correlation during gait. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The external knee adduction moment is considered a surrogate measure for the medial tibiofemoral contact force and is commonly used to quantify the load reducing effect of orthopedic interventions. However, only limited and controversial data exist about

Capsular ligaments provide a passive stabilizing force to protect the hip against edge loading
Bone & Joint Research, 2021 Aims: In the native hip, the hip capsular ligaments tighten at the limits of range of hip motion and may provide a passive stabilizing force to protect the hip against edge loading.

Finite element study of the biomechanical effects on the rotator cuff under load
Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2023 Rotator cuff injuries account for 50% of shoulder disorders that can cause shoulder pain and reduced mobility. The occurrence of rotator cuff injury is related to the variation in shoulder load, but the mechanical changes in the rotator cuff caused by ...
