Predictive simulation of single-leg landing scenarios for ACL injury risk factors evaluation [PDF]
arXiv, 2022 The Anterior Cruciate Ligament rupture is a very common knee injury during sport activities. Landing after a jump is one of the most prominent human body movement scenarios that can lead to such an injury. The landing - related Anterior Cruciate Ligament (ACL) injury risk factors have been in the spotlight of research interest.
