OpenSim: Open-Source Software to Create and Analyze Dynamic Simulations of Movement

TL;DR: OpenSim is developed, a freely available, open-source software system that lets users develop models of musculoskeletal structures and create dynamic simulations of a wide variety of movements to simulate the dynamics of individuals with pathological gait and to explore the biomechanical effects of treatments.
Journal ArticleDOI

Generating dynamic simulations of movement using computed muscle control.

TL;DR: A new algorithm, which is called computed muscle control, that uses static optimization along with feedforward and feedback controls to drive the kinematic trajectory of a musculoskeletal model toward a set of desired kinematics is introduced.
Journal ArticleDOI

Adjustment of Muscle Mechanics Model Parameters to Simulate Dynamic Contractions in Older Adults

TL;DR: Accounting for age-related changes in muscle properties, other than decreased maximum isometric force, may be particularly important when simulating movements that require substantial power development.
Journal ArticleDOI

Using computed muscle control to generate forward dynamic simulations of human walking from experimental data

TL;DR: A residual elimination algorithm is introduced to compute pelvis and low back kinematic trajectories that ensure consistency between whole-body dynamics and measured ground reactions and a computed muscle control algorithm is used to vary muscle excitations to track experimental joint kinematics within a forward dynamic simulation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Hamstring Strain Injuries: Recommendations for Diagnosis, Rehabilitation and Injury Prevention

TL;DR: A clinical guide for the rehabilitation of acute hamstring injuries is proposed, including specific criteria for treatment progression and return to sport, and directions for future research are described, including injury-specific rehabilitation programs, objective measures to assess reinjury risk, and strategies to prevent injury occurrence.
