Study Design. The assessment of sacrum angular motions and stress across sacroiliac joint
(SIJ) articular surfaces using finite element lumbar spine-pelvis model and simulated …

Background: The sacroiliac joints (SIJs), the largest axial joints in the body, sit in between
the sacrum and pelvic bones on either side. They connect the spine to the pelvis and thus …

Multiple computational models have been developed to study knee biomechanics. However,
the majority of these models are mainly validated against a limited range of loading …

Background: Despite basic characterization of the loading factors that strain the anterior
cruciate ligament (ACL), the interrelationship(s) and additive nature of these loads that occur …

Background: Strong biomechanical and epidemiological evidence associates knee valgus
collapse with isolated, noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries. However, a …

Study Design. Finite element (FE) method was used to compare the biomechanics of L3–S1
lumbar spine with graded facetectomy before and after placement of Dynesys. Objective. To …

Study Design. The comparison of sacroiliac joint (SIJ) angular motions, pelvis ligaments
strain, load sharing, and stress distribution across the joint for male and female spine-pelvis-…

We assessed the relationship between leg length discrepancy (LLD) and the load distribution
across the sacro‐iliac joint (SIJ). A finite element model of the spine–pelvis was developed …

Study Design: A biomechanical finite element modeling study of the human lumbar spine.
Objective: To evaluate the effects of a transforaminal interbody device’s footprint on lumbar …

Background Bone bruises located on the lateral femoral condyle and posterolateral tibia are
commonly associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries and may contribute to …
