In vivo knee joint mechanics : implications for musculotendon modelling

The general aim of this thesis was to study knee joint mechanics in-vivo in healthy participants with particular attention to the quantification of the patellar tendon moment arm length and the accurate calculation of the actual knee joint moment when dynamometry-based musculotendon loading calculat...
