In vivo load sharing among the quadriceps components.
Knee extension is always performed with coordinated contractions of multiple quadriceps muscle components; however, how the load is shared among them under normal and pathological conditions is unclear. We hypothesized that: the absolute moment generated by each quadriceps component increases with the total knee extension moment; the relative contribution and its dependence on the total knee ex...
متن کاملDynamic In Vivo Moment Arms of the Individual Quadriceps Components
INTRODUCTION: Patellofemoral pain (PFP) is closely related to static patellar malalignment and patellar maltracking. The etiology of patellar maltracking is multifactorial; relating to femoral shape, passive soft-tissue restraints; and/or an imbalance of forces on the patella. A number of structures, both passive and active, contribute to the force balance on the patella. Previous studies have ...
متن کاملIn vivo and noninvasive load sharing among the vasti in patellar malalignment.
PURPOSE It is not clear how the knee extension torque is distributed quantitatively among the lateral and medial vasti in patellofemoral pain (PFP) patients with patellar malalignment, which was investigated in vivo and noninvasively in ten PFP patients and eleven controls. We hypothesized that the vastus medialis oblique (VMO) and vastus medialis longus (VML) of PFP patients contribute less to...
متن کاملResearch Article Reliability of Modules with Load-Sharing Components
To increase the reliability of modules, and thus of systems assembled from them, they are frequently constructed using parallel load-sharing components. Examples include jet engines, electrical power networks, and telecommunications networks. We consider the situation when the components operate independently, but when any one of them fails, the load of the failed component is instantaneously d...
متن کاملthe most important demotivating factors among efl teachers in private english language institutes in mashhad
just as motivation is important in sla research, demotivation constitutes an important factor, too. there are many studies done on demotivation and burnout of teachers. many of these studies have been conducted on one or two aspects of english instruction. consequently, there are few studies which have been done on more than two aspects of english teaching. the aim of this study is to find out ...
