Lower limb exoskeletons serve multiple purposes, like supporting and augmenting
movement. Biomechanical models are practical tools to understand human movement, and …

Osteoarthritis (OA) has a complex, heterogeneous and only partly understood etiology.
There is a definite role of joint cartilage pathomechanics in originating and progressing of …

Musculoskeletal models have indispensable applications in occupational risk assessment/
management and clinical treatment/rehabilitation programs. To estimate muscle forces and …

Introduction Gait analysis is increasingly used to support clinical decision-making regarding
diagnosis and treatment planning for movement disorders. As a key part of gait analysis …

We propose a novel machine learning (ML)-driven methodology to estimate biomechanical
variables of interest traditionally obtained from upper-extremity musculoskeletal (MSK) …

Compressive knee joint contact force during walking is thought to be related to initiation and
progression of knee osteoarthritis. However, joint loading is often evaluated with surrogate …

The load and stress distribution on cartilage and meniscus of the knee joint in typical lower
limb movements of Chen-style Tai Chi (TC) and deep squat (DS) were analyzed using finite …

Muscle force and joint kinematics estimation from surface electromyography (sEMG) are
essential for real-time biomechanical analysis of the dynamic interplay among neural …

Full-body and lower-extremity human musculoskeletal models require feet ground reaction
forces (GRFs) and centers of pressure (CoPs) as inputs to predict muscle forces and joint …

Selective dorsal rhizotomy (SDR) is commonly used to permanently reduce spasticity in
children with cerebral palsy (CP). However, studies have yielded varying results regarding …
