  • Re: Knee forces

    Dear Biomcl-l subscribers,

    Thank you very much for the interest shown for my posting on knee
    forces. There were enough requests for a list of the replies that I
    thought I should just post them.

    Colin, Your recent message was timely and of particular interest to
    me. Over the last few years we at the School of Physiotherapy at
    Curtin University of Technology have been pondering the questions of
    analysis of knee joint forces and the design of safe exercises for
    individuals with compromised ACLs. Recently, we have used the Kin-Com
    dynamometer with single and dual resistance pads to gather force data
    and estimate the shear component of the joint force using the model of
    Nisell. This work is abstracted (PL 490S) in Physical Therapy, 74(5)
    Suppl, p.S164 May 1994, and will be published in full later this year.
    The Nisell model is a fairly simplistic model and I have been
    contemplating putting a request to the netwrok, as you have done. I
    would be very interested in further correspondence and a copy of the
    replies you receive.

    Best wishes,

    Geoff Strauss

    You are probably already familiar with 2-D analyses such as described
    in:

    Collins JJ and O'Connor JJ. Muscle-ligament interactions at the
    knee during walking. Proc Instn Mech Engrs, Vol 205, 11-18, 1991.

    Herzog W and Read L. Anterior cruciate ligament forces in alpine
    skiing. J. Applied Biomechanics, 9(4):260-278, 1993.

    Dwight Meglan performed a 3-D modelling analysis of forces during
    three common weightlifting exercises (front squat, power squat, and
    lunge) which is described in the following one-page abstract:

    Meglan D, Lutz G, and Stuart M. Effects of closed kinetic chain
    exercises for ACL rehabilitation upon the load in the capsular and
    ligamentous structures of the knee. Transactions of the 39th Annual
    Meeting, Orthopaedic Research Society, Vol 18, p. 307, 1993.

    I would appreciate your sharing with me the responses to your Biomch-L
    listing. Best wishes for your work.

    Hi there,
    I have a couple articles that may help you out.

    Three-dimensional analysis of knee joint movement with biplanar
    photography, with special reference to the analysis of 'dynamic' knee
    instabilities. by H. Matsumoto and B.B. Seedhom. IN: Proceedings
    Institn. of
    mechanical engineers. 1993 207(3) 163-173.

    Rotational flexibility of the human knee due to varus/valgus and
    axial moments in vivo. by O.S. Mills and M.L. Hull IN: Journal of
    biomechanics. 1991 24(8) 673-690.

    Hopefully these will assist you in your project. Good luck!

    Dear Colin

    I agree it is hard to find those particular references but you might
    want to
    have a look at the following:

    Devita, P. & Skelly, W.A. (1992). Effect of landing stiffness on
    joint kinematics and energetics in the lower extremity. Medicine and
    Science in Sports and Exercise, 24(1), 108-115.

    Dufek, J.S & Bates, B.T. (1991). Biomechanical facotrs associated
    with injury during landing in jump sports. Sports Medicine, 12(5),
    326-337.

    Bobbert, M.F., Huijing, P.A. & Van Ingen Schenau, G.J. (1987). Drop
    jumping. 1. The influence of jumping technique on the biomechanics of
    jumping. Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, 19(4), 332-338.

    In addition the following 2 refs have info on peak GRFs, braking
    forces etc.

    Steele, J.R. (1990). Biomechanical factors affecting performance in
    netball: Implications for improving performance and injury reduction.
    Sports Medicine, 10(2), 88-102.

    Steele, J.R. & Milburn, P.D. (1988). Effect of different synthetic
    sport surfaces on ground reaction forces at landing in netball.
    International Journal of Sport Biomechanics, 4, 130-145.

    I am also working on 3D knee prediction analysis and would appreciate
    any other refs you get!!

    Good Luck and thanks
