The development of a computational multibody knee model able to capture some of the fundamental properties of the human knee articulation is presented. This desideratum is reached by including the kinetics of the real knee articulation. The research question is whether an accurate modeling of the condyle contact in the knee will lead to reproduction of the complex combination of flexion/extension, abduction/add...
Over the last decades, the study of human body motion as a multibody system has undergone enormous developments. In a broad sense, most of the research in simulation of human tasks is based on the assumption that the human joints constraining the relative motion of the anatomical segments are ideal joints. However, this assumption fails to capture obvious physical properties of the natural human articulations. ...
