Modelling and Analysis on Biomechanical Dynamic Characteristics of Knee Flexion Movement under Squatting

The model of three-dimensional (3D) geometric knee was built, which included femoral-tibial, patellofemoral articulations and the bone and soft tissues. Dynamic finite element (FE) model of knee was developed to simulate both the kinematics and the internal stresses during knee flexion. The biomecha...
