Finite element model creation and stability considerations of complex biological articulation : the human wrist joint [PDF]
The finite element method has been used with considerable success to simulate the behaviour of various joints such as the hip, knee and shoulder. It has had less impact on more complicated joints such as the wrist and the ankle.
