Patellofemoral and tibiofemoral forces during knee extension: simulations to strength training and rehabilitation exercises

Abstract Introduction: Limited evidence has been shown on ways to optimize the mechanical design of machines in order to minimize knee loads. Objective: This study compared six computer simulated models of open kinetic knee extension exercises for patellofemoral pressure and tibiofemoral forces....
