A mathematical model of knee kinematics utilizing the principle of minimum energy
Approved for public release; distribution is unlimited === This thesis seeks to determine if the path of motion of the knee in passive flexion results from the minimization of potential energy in the joint ligaments. To investigate this hypothesis, a simulation modeling both collateral and cruciate...
