This paper describes a procedure that automatically generates parameters for the geometric modeling of kinematic chains. The convention of modeling used is the Denavit Hartenberg convention modified by Khalil Kleinfinger, noted DHKK. The procedure proposed here has two advantages. First the user does not need to calculate the geometric parameters by himself. He simply has to give the directions...

background: the salvage proximal femoral osteotomy is performed in mild or moderate osteoarthritis when the articulating surfaces are normal and relieves the subject’s pain. because the importance of angular mal-alignment of the femur bone at the hip junction accurate pre-op planning based on patient specific anatomy is required to prevent any lower limb misalignment and joint problem pre-opera...
