  • Quadriceps force values

    Dear Biomech-l'ers:

    Late in August, I requested information regarding force values
    (or estimates) for each of the quadriceps muscles. I got a number of
    responses to my request. Most of them were requests to share the
    information I received.

    Anyway, here's what I received. I haven't read all of them. I had
    to send away for some, but wanted to share the responses I received
    before the topic was totally forgotten.

    Gary Kamen recommended the following:

    Basmajian JV et al. Anat Rec 172:15-20, 1971
    Arsenault AB & Chapman AE. Physiotherapy Canada 26(5):253-262,
    1974
    Andres TL. Am Corr Ther J 31:49-51, 1977
    Andres TL. Am Corr Ther J 33:111-114, 1979

    Bob Marshall suggested:

    McNair et al. Quadriceps strength deficit associated with rectus
    femoris rupture: a case study. Clinical Biomechanics 6:190-
    192, 1991

    Ted Worrell recommended:

    van Kampen A, Huiskes R. The three-dimensional tracking pattern
    of the human patella. J Orthop Res 8(3):372-382, 1990

    I am still interested if there are more suggestions.... -cdi
