I am searching for literature relating to the measurement or modelling of
vertical ground reaction, bending and torsional forces imparted upon the
human tibia during walking and running. I am interested in the role of these
forces in the aetiology of tibial stress disorder, and more specifically,
the relationship between muscle dysfunction and changes to these forces.
I have searched the archives of Biomch-L, Medline, Sportsdiscus, web of
science and have come up with a number of interesting references (see below
for summary of relevant references found) - most of these relate to VGRF and
a small number to bending forces. References relating to the measurement or
modelling of torsional forces appear to be particularly rare.
If anyone has references relating to the measurement or modelling of these
forces, equipment used/suitable for such studies, validation of methods etc,
these would be much appreciated.
Thank you in advance (Summary of replies to be posted)
