On validation of multibody musculoskeletal models [PDF]

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part H: Journal of Engineering in Medicine, 2012
We review the opportunities to validate multibody musculoskeletal models in view of the current transition of musculoskeletal modelling from a research topic to a practical simulation tool in product design, healthcare and other important applications. This transition creates a new need for justification that the models are adequate representations of ...

A Musculoskeletal model for the lumbar spine [PDF]

Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, 2011
A new musculoskeletal model for the lumbar spine is described in this paper. This model features a rigid pelvis and sacrum, the five lumbar vertebrae, and a rigid torso consisting of a lumped thoracic spine and ribcage. The motion of the individual lumbar vertebrae was defined as a fraction of the net lumbar movement about the three rotational degrees ...

A review of musculoskeletal modelling of human locomotion [PDF]

Interface Focus, 2021
Locomotion through the environment is important because movement provides access to key resources, including food, shelter and mates. Central to many locomotion-focused questions is the need to understand internal forces, particularly muscle forces and joint reactions.

Statistical Modeling of Lower Limb Kinetics During Deep Squat and Forward Lunge

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2020
PurposeModern statistics and higher computational power have opened novel possibilities to complex data analysis. While gait has been the utmost described motion in quantitative human motion analysis, descriptions of more challenging movements like the ...

A Differentiable Dynamic Model for Musculoskeletal Simulation and Exoskeleton Control

Biosensors, 2022
An exoskeleton, a wearable device, was designed based on the user’s physical and cognitive interactions. The control of the exoskeleton uses biomedical signals reflecting the user intention as input, and its algorithm is calculated as an output to make ...

FAST DEFORMATION FOR MODELLING OF MUSCULOSKELETAL SYSTEM [PDF]

Proceedings of the International Conference on Computer Graphics Theory and Applications, 2012
This paper proposes a gradient domain deformation for wrapping surface models of muscles around bones as they move during a simulation of physiological activities. Each muscle is associated with one or more poly-lines that represent the muscle skeleton to which the surface model of the muscle is bound so that transformation of the skeleton (caused by ...

Musculoskeletal modeling and analysis of trikonasana

International Journal of Yoga, 2018
Yoga has origins speculated to date back to pre-Vedic Indian period and is practiced as a common exercise, both in India as well as all around the world. Although the yoga practices are ages old, there is not much research literature available. Moreover, with the advancement in technology, the modern analysis tools are not used up to their full ...

The influence of pain on tibiofemoral joint contact force and muscle forces in knee osteoarthritis patients during stair ascent

Engineering Reports, 2020
This study investigated the tibiofemoral joint (TFJ) forces and supporting muscle forces displayed by knee osteoarthritis (OA) patients during stair ascent, and if these forces were influenced by the presence of pain. Fifteen knee OA patients partitioned

Development of a Knee Joint CT-FEM Model in Load Response of the Stance Phase During Walking Using Muscle Exertion, Motion Analysis, and Ground Reaction Force Data

Medicina, 2020
Background and objectives: There are no reports on articular stress distribution during walking based on any computed tomography (CT)-finite element model (CT-FEM). This study aimed to develop a calculation model of the load response (LR) phase, the most
