Development of a full flexion 3D musculoskeletal model of the knee considering intersegmental contact and deep muscle activity during high knee flexion
Kingston, David C. (University of Waterloo, 2019-01-24)Habitual kneeling in high knee flexion postures is a risk factor for knee joint dysfunction yet critical parameters for modeling this range of motion remain unknown or untested in three dimensions. High flexion is defined ... -
Representing fine-wire EMG with surface EMG in three thigh muscles during high knee flexion movements
Kingston, David C.; Acker, Stacey M. (Elsevier, 2018-12-01)Activation waveforms of vastus intermedius, adductor magnus, and semimembranosus have not been reported for high knee flexion activities such as kneeling or squatting, likely due to the invasive procedures required for ... -
Thigh-calf contact parameters for six high knee flexion postures: Onset, maximum angle, total force, contact area, and center of force.
Kingston, David C.; Acker, Stacey M. (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. ...
