Effects of Loading Positions on Lower Limb Biomechanics During Lunge Squat in Men with Different Training Experience

open access: yesPhysical Activity and Health
Background: The lunge exercise is commonly adopted in public fitness programs. However, inadequate training experience and knowledge may result in improper actions, resulting in lowering training efficacy and possibly causing exercise-related diseases ...

Simultaneous and Proportional Control of Wrist and Hand Movements Based on a Neural-Driven Musculoskeletal Model

open access: yesIEEE Transactions on Neural Systems and Rehabilitation Engineering, 2023
Human-machine interfaces (HMIs) based on electromyography (EMG) signals have been developed for simultaneous and proportional control (SPC) of multiple degrees of freedom (DoFs).

Upper limb strength estimation of physically impaired persons using a musculoskeletal model: A sensitivity analysis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
© 2015 IEEE. Sensitivity of upper limb strength calculated from a musculoskeletal model was analyzed, with focus on how the sensitivity is affected when the model is adapted to represent a person with physical impairment.

Personalization of closed-chain shoulder models yields high kinematic accuracy for multiple motions

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
IntroductionThe shoulder joint complex is prone to musculoskeletal issues, such as rotator cuff-related pain, which affect two-thirds of adults and often result in suboptimal treatment outcomes.

Exploring differential item functioning in the SF-36 by demographic, clinical, psychological and social factors in an osteoarthritis population [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The SF-36 is a very commonly used generic measure of health outcome in osteoarthritis (OA). An important, but frequently overlooked, aspect of validating health outcome measures is to establish if items work in the same way across subgroup of a ...

Challenges in Kinetic-Kinematic Driven Musculoskeletal Subject-Specific Infant Modeling

open access: yesMathematical and Computational Applications, 2022
Musculoskeletal computational models provide a non-invasive approach to investigate human movement biomechanics. These models could be particularly useful for pediatric applications where in vivo and in vitro biomechanical parameters are difficult or ...

A generic musculoskeletal model of the juvenile lower limb for biomechanical analyses of gait

open access: yesComputer Methods in Biomechanics and Biomedical Engineering, 2020
The aim of this study was to develop a generic musculoskeletal model of a healthy 10-year-old child and examine the effects of geometric scaling on the calculated values of lower-limb muscle forces during gait.

Applying Optimal Control Algorithm to Estimate Muscle Activation during the Gait Cycle [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Applied and Computational Mechanics
The effective procedure for activating muscles and improving movements in individuals who have a central nervous system injury is Functional electrical stimulation (FES). To have accurate movements of the limbs, appropriate stimulation patterns should be

Cancellous bone and theropod dinosaur locomotion. Part II—a new approach to inferring posture and locomotor biomechanics in extinct tetrapod vertebrates [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
This paper is the second of a three-part series that investigates the architecture of cancellous bone in the main hindlimb bones of theropod dinosaurs, and uses cancellous bone architectural patterns to infer locomotor biomechanics in extinct non-avian ...
