Relationship between the Magnitude and Location of Thigh-Calf Contact Force in High Flexion and Anthropometric Measures
(University of Waterloo, 2015-05-21)The soft-tissue contact between the thigh and calf during deep knee flexion results in tibiofemoral joint contact force reductions at angles beyond 134º of flexion (Caruntu et al., 2003; Zelle et al., 2009; Hirokawa et ... -
Thigh-calf contact parameters for six high knee flexion postures: Onset, maximum angle, total force, contact area, and center of force.
(Elsevier, 2018-01-23)In high knee flexion, contact between the posterior thigh and calf is expected to decrease forces on tibiofemoral contact surfaces, therefore, thigh-calf contact needs to be thoroughly characterized to model its effect. ...
