On the derivation of a tensor to calculate six degree-of-freedom, musculotendon joint stiffness: Implications for stability and impedance analyses
2013, Journal of BiomechanicsCitation Excerpt :Without any loading, the knee, shoulder, and spine translate an average of 8.7 mm (Walker et al., 1988), 1.9 mm (Graichen et al., 2000), and 1.4 mm (Boden and Wiesel, 1990), respectively, during passive motion. With larger shearing forces, these joints can translate much further, potentially causing passive tissue damage or joint dislocation (Fleming et al., 1993; Lippitt et al., 2003; Howarth, 2011). Despite strong empirical evidence suggesting that muscles can provide joint stiffness and prevent translational motion (Hirokawa et al., 1991), there have been limited attempts to quantify muscular translational stiffness (Oosterom et al., 2003; Cashaback et al., 2013).
Arthrometric curve-shape variables to assess anterior cruciate ligament deficiency
2012, Clinical BiomechanicsCitation Excerpt :In previous studies, the point of initial engagement of the ACL during anterior drawer was defined as the “just-taut” point (Fleming et al., 1993). Fleming et al. indicated in five live subjects that a mean anterior load of 17.1 (SD 11.6) N is necessary for the ACL to reach its just-taut length (Fleming et al., 1993). Our results indicate that there is a great deal of variability between individuals in the amount of force required to engage the ACL.
Biomechanical risk factors of non-contact ACL injuries: A stochastic biomechanical modeling study
2012, Journal of Sport and Health ScienceCitation Excerpt :These previous studies combined with the results of the current study suggest that the greater knee valgus moment due to the ground reaction force is a risk factor of non-contact ACL injury, as well. Previous studies, however, also demonstrated that knee valgus moment alone may not be able to cause isolated ACL injury with minimum MCL damage as clinical observations showed.44,46–48 The three risk factors confirmed by the results of this study are consistent with the literature.
