... to the knee joint ( 17 18 19 ). However, the ACL might carry much higher forces during in vivo activities than the forces measured in in vitro experiments ( 20 ) because in vivo loads can be much larger than those applied in in vitro experiments to simulate physiological loading conditions ( 15...

The aim of these measurements...

...-predicted and measured systolic strains and LV volumes using the successive response surface method for optimization. The significant depression in optimized T max _ B relative to T max _ R was confirmed by direct ex vivo force measurements from skinned fiber preparations. The optimized values of T max _ B...

... the CoP trajectory in able bodied (AB) subjects. Seven TF subjects and eight AB subjects were tested on a force plate and on an 8 m long walkway. On the force plate, they initiated gait two times with their sound leg and two times with their prosthetic leg. Force measurement data were used to calculate...
