Predicting mechanical load of the glenohumeral joint, using net joint moments

摘要: Abstract Objective. To evaluate the relationship between net moments for glenohumeral joint as calculated with a model that is easy to apply (Static Strength Prediction Program (SSPP)) and internal forces, simulation of human shoulder (Delft Shoulder Model, DSM). Design. Static recordings bony landmarks girdle during prescribed arm motions using three-dimensional (3D) digitizer. Background. The SSPP biomechanical evaluation workload. Concerning output consists in joint. For load predictions unknown, therefore it useful investigate whether can be used predict mechanical Methods. 3D co-ordinates are recorded, variable positions, four different planes. Results. A strong linear compression forces found, which makes reasonable assume direct forces. Conclusions. (a) Net appeared good indicator static situations. (b) these Relevance Biomechanical models predicting work situations order prevent overload injuries, well many other areas, instance wheelchair propulsion.
