Contribution of lower extremity muscles to center of mass acceleration during walking: Effect of body weight.
TL;DR: In this article , the authors examined the contribution of individual lower extremity muscle force to the COM accelerations during walking in overweight and non-overweight individuals, and found that increased contributions from the large posterior calf muscles to the mediolateral COM acceleration may be related to efforts to alleviate COM sway in overweight individuals.
Validation of a Patient-Specific Musculoskeletal Model for Lumbar Load Estimation Generated by an Automated Pipeline From Whole Body CT
Tanja Lerchl,Malek El Husseini,Amirhossein Bayat,Anjany Sekuboyina,Luis Hermann,Kati Nispel,Thomas Baum,Maximilian T. Löffler,Veit Senner,Jan S. Kirschke +9 more
TL;DR: An automatically generated patient-specific musculoskeletal model of the spine simulating static loading tasks was validated and was able to calculate loads of the lumbar spine for static activities with respect to individual biomechanical properties, such as spinal alignment, bodyweight distribution, and ligament and muscle insertion points.

Sophie Fleischmann,Severine Dietz,Julian Shanbhag,Annika Wuensch,Marlies Nitschke,Jörg Miehling,Sandro Wartzack,Sigrid Leyendecker,Bjoern M. Eskofier,Anne D. Koelewijn +9 more
TL;DR: This study explores dataset bias and scaling techniques in multi-source gait biomechanics using explainable machine learning, combining four existing studies and finding that models can predict original data sources with high accuracy, but scaling methods cannot fully remove bias.
Dynamic balance during running using running-specific prostheses.
TL;DR: Quantifying whole-body angular momentum in eight people with a unilateral transtibial amputation using running-specific prostheses (RSPs) compared to eight people without TTA found that people with TTA had greater ranges of whole- body angular momentum compared to peopleWithout TTA in the frontal and sagittal planes.
Effects of two neuromuscular training programs on running biomechanics with load carriage: a study protocol for a randomised controlled trial
Bernard X.W. Liew,Susan Morris,Justin W L Keogh,Justin W L Keogh,Justin W L Keogh,Brendyn B. Appleby,Kevin Netto +6 more
TL;DR: It is hypothesize that a biomechanically informed neuromuscular training program would optimize running mechanics during load carriage to a greater extent than a generic strength training program.

OpenSim: Open-Source Software to Create and Analyze Dynamic Simulations of Movement
Scott L. Delp,Frank C. Anderson,Allison S. Arnold,Peter Loan,Ayman Habib,Chand T. John,Eran Guendelman,Darryl G. Thelen +7 more
TL;DR: OpenSim is developed, a freely available, open-source software system that lets users develop models of musculoskeletal structures and create dynamic simulations of a wide variety of movements to simulate the dynamics of individuals with pathological gait and to explore the biomechanical effects of treatments.

Muscle and tendon: properties, models, scaling, and application to biomechanics and motor control
TL;DR: Their integrated ability to generate force statically and dynamically is studied by formulating a generic model of the "musculotendon actuator", which has only one parameter, the ratio of tendon length at rest to muscle fiberlength at rest.

Measurement of lower extremity kinematics during level walking
TL;DR: The relatively small number of body surface markers used in the VICON system render it easy to implement for use in routine clinical gait evaluations and should be a useful reference for describing and comparing pathologic gait patterns.

Adjustments to Zatsiorsky-Seluyanov's segment inertia parameters.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors adjust the mean relative center of mass positions and radii of gyration reported by Zatsiorsky et al. in order to reference them to the joint centers or other commonly used landmarks, rather than the original landmarks.

An interactive graphics-based model of the lower extremity to study orthopaedic surgical procedures
TL;DR: A model is developed of the human lower extremity to study how changes in musculoskeletal geometry and musculotendon parameters affect muscle force and its moment about the joints and the joint moments calculated with the model compare well with experimentally measured isometric joint moments.
