Abstract: We propose a point-mass biomechanical model to estimate the forces and moments supported by the upper extremity during Lofstrand crutch-assisted gait. This model is based on the Newtonian classical mechanics and the angular momentum theorem.… read more here.

Abstract: Determination of muscle energy expenditure by computer modeling and analysis is of great interest to estimate the whole body energy consumption, while avoiding the complex character of in vivo experimental measurements for some subjects or… read more here.
