Accurate localisation of the hip joint centre is required to obtain accurate kinematics, kinetics and musculoskeletal modelling results. Literature data showed that conclusions drawn from synthetic data, adult normal ...

In case of transtibial amputation, the deficit resulting from the loss of the lower limb can be partly compensated with a prosthetic foot and adapted rehabilitation. New prosthetic feet have been developed for transtibial ...

Rupture of the muscle-tendon complex in tensile test. Comparison between experimentations and discrete element modeling

In models developed for impact biomechanics, muscles are usually represented with one-dimensional elements having active and passive properties. The passive properties of muscles are most often obtained from experiments ...
