An New Energetic Approach to the Modeling of Human Joint Kinematics: Application to the Ankle

The objective of this dissertation is to develop and test a predictive model for the passive kinematics of human joints based on the energy minimization principle. To pursue this goal, the tibio-talar joint is chosen as a reference joint, for the reduced number of bones involved and its simplicit...
