Relationship between joint angle and contact force at the knee during normal gait
Journal of Advanced Mechanical Design, Systems, and ManufacturingKnee joint contact force is related to knee joint pain and related diseases such as osteoarthritis. Joint loading during gait even on an intact knee may cumulatively lead to the joint diseases. Previous studies on forward dynamics simulation suggest that
