Optimization reduces knee-joint forces during walking and squatting: Validating the inverse dynamics approach for full body movements on instrumented knee prostheses [PDF]
Due to the redundancy of our motor system, movements can be performed in many ways. While multiple motor control strategies can all lead to the desired behavior, they result in different joint and muscle forces. This creates opportunities to explore this redundancy, e.g., for pain avoidance or reducing the risk of further injury.

A systematic review of the evidence for single stage and two stage revision of infected knee replacement [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Periprosthetic infection about the knee is a devastating complication that may affect between 1% and 5% of knee replacement. With over 79 000 knee replacements being implanted each year in the UK, periprosthetic infection (PJI) is set to ...

This work presents a method to create neuron‐like (neuromorphic) spiking representations of texture that are invariant to the scanning speed and contact force applied in the tactile sensing process. In offline and real‐time experiments, these representations improve classification accuracy, computational efficiency, and the ability to identify textures
