Individuals with lower limb amputation often develop overuse injuries and osteoarthritis in the intact knee. Unfortunately, how prosthetic foot stiffness and load carriage technique influences intact knee joint loading during amputee gait is not well understood. This study found that during unloaded...
Achilles tendinopathy is an overuse injury that is associated with increased risk of tendon rupture. There is an urgent clinical need to identify predicting risk of injury. Using a combined biomechanical loading and ultrasound imaging model, we mechanically fatigued cadaveric Achilles tendons and fo...
Gait deviations seem persistent after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). The gait of TKA patients and asymptomatic controls are commonly compared at their comfortable walking speed (CWS). We aim to identify deviating gait biomechanics of TKA patients that are not contaminated by differences in gait spee...
Analysis of hip contact forces, computed through musculo-skeletal modelling, of 132 total hip replacement patients while performing several activities of daily living.
This study investigated the influence of joint angular velocity on time to maximum available torque when contracting from rest. Involuntary contractions were evoked at different velocities, with and without pre-load. In contractions without pre-load, time from rest to 75% of pre-loaded torque got sh...
