Thigh-calf contact force measurements in deep knee flexion.
BACKGROUND Knee models often do not contain thigh-calf contact which occurs in deep knee flexion. Thigh-calf contact is expected to reduce muscle forces and thereby affects internal stresses in the knee joint. The purpose of this study was to measure thigh-calf contact forces. Two deep knee flexion activities were selected: squatting and kneeling. METHODS Ten healthy subjects participated in ...
متن کاملThigh-calf contact: does it affect the loading of the knee in the high-flexion range?
Recently, high-flexion knee implants have been developed to provide for a large range of motion (ROM>120 degrees ) after total knee arthroplasty (TKA). Since knee forces typically increase with larger flexion angles, it is commonly assumed that high-flexion knee implants are subjected to larger loads than conventional knee implants. However, most high-flexion studies do not consider thigh-calf ...
متن کاملEffective Parameters in Contact Mechanic for Micro/nano Particle Manipulation Based on Atomic Force Microscopy
The effect of geometry and material of the Micro/Nano particle on contact mechanic for manipulation was studied in this work based on atomic force microscopy. Hertz contact model simulation for EpH biological micro particle with spherical, cylindrical, and circular crowned roller shape was used to investigate the effect of geometry on contact simulation process in manipulation. Then, to val...
متن کاملDesign, Modeling, and Construction of a New Tactile Sensor for Measuring Contact-Force
This paper presents the design, modeling, and testing of a flexible tactile sensor and its applications. This sensor is made of polymer materials and can detect the 2D surface texture image and contact-force estimation. The sensing mechanism is based on the novel contact deflection effect of a membrane. We measure the deflection of the membrane with measuring the strain in the membrane with emb...
متن کاملDesign and Construction of a Novel Tactile Sensor for Measuring Contact-Force, Based on Piezoelectric Effect
In this paper, design and construction of a tactile sensor for measuring contact-force is presented. Mechanism of measuring contact-force in this tactile sensor is based on impedance changing of piezoelectric crystal and voltage of different points in circuit as a result of applying force on the crystal. By considering a specific point in the circuit and recording the changes of its voltage, ma...
