| summary | Investigating (and preventing) joint injuries requires the development of multi-level biomechanical models. In order to be realistic, these models have to take into account the precise geometry of the joint structures (i.e., bones, ligaments, cartilages), the mechanical properties of these structures, as well as the external and muscular forces acting on these structures. The talk will present the development and the application to the ankle-foot complex of such a multi-level model. First, possible ways to improve the estimation of muscle forces will be presented and second, finite elements models of the ankle-foot complex will be detailed. As an example, the merging of the two previous models will be done in order to allow for the study of possible ankle joint injuries. |
