Subject-Specific Alignment and Mass Distribution in Musculoskeletal Models of the Lumbar Spine

Subject-Specific Alignment and Mass Distribution in Musculoskeletal Models of the Lumbar Spine

Musculoskeletal modeling is a well-established method in spine biomechanics and generally employed for investigations concerning both the healthy and the pathological spine. It commonly involves inverse kinematics and optimization of muscle activity and provides detailed insight into joint loading....
