Use of an EMG-driven biomechanical model to study virtual injuries

Article Abstract:

A study carried out to demonstrate how the virtual arm can be used to simulate a neuromuscular injury and to examine if a virtual injury could evoke a change in muscle activation patterns is discussed. It is found that the virtual error might be a useful tool for the study of motor coordination and how muscle activation patterns change in response to injury.

Estimation of muscle forces and joint moments using a forward-inverse dynamics model

Article Abstract:

A hybrid approach that uses an EMG-driven forward dynamics model to estimate muscle forces and from those joint moments at the ankle is described. It is shown that neuromusculoskeletal models that use EMG as input can be employed to accurately estimate joint moments.

A modeling framework to estimate patellofemoral joint cartilage stress in vivo

Article Abstract:

A modeling pipeline to estimate in vivo cartilage stress in patellofemoral (PF) joint cartilage is discussed. A novel approach is found to calculate PF joint cartilage stress in vivo.
