Wearable sensors have the potential to enable comprehensive patient characterization and
optimized clinical intervention. Critical to realizing this vision is accurate estimation of …

Background: Hip biomechanics are crucial in understanding movement disorders and joint
pathologies. Pelvic tilt and femoral torsion are key factors influencing hip function and …

Existing hip-focused musculoskeletal (MSK) models are limited by the hip range of motion,
hip musculature detail, or have only been qualitatively validated. The purposes of this study …

Acetabular dysplasia is primarily characterized by an altered acetabular geometry that
results in deficient coverage of the femoral head, and is a known cause of hip osteoarthritis …

Background Patients with transfemoral amputation and socket prostheses are at a
heightened risk of developing musculoskeletal overuse injuries, commonly due to altered …

Bone-anchored limbs (BALs) are socket prosthesis alternatives, directly fixing to residual
bone via osseointegrated implant. There is a need to quantify multi-level effects of …

Background Spinopelvic stiffness (primarily in the sagittal plane) has been identified as a
factor associated with inferior patient-reported outcomes (PROs) and increased dislocation …

Ti6Al4V fabricated by selective laser melting (SLM) is commonly used as an artificial hip
joint. However, the inferior tribological properties fall far short of the requirements for …

Objective Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a common orthopedic procedure that alleviates pain
for millions of individuals. Yet, persistent physical function deficits, perhaps associated with …

Dislocation remains the leading indication for revision of total hip arthroplasty (THA). The
objective of this study was to use a computational model to compare the overall resistance to …
