Bioptim, a python framework for musculoskeletal optimal control in biomechanics
(Institute of Electrical and Electronics Engineers, 2022-06-28)Musculoskeletal simulations are useful in biomechanics to investigate the causes of movement disorders, to estimate non-measurable physiological quantities or to study the optimality of human movement. We introduce Bioptim, an easy-to-use Python ... -
Can foot orthoses impose different gait features based on geometrical design in healthy subjects? : a systematic review and meta-analysis
(Elsevier, 2019-10-24)Objective Foot orthoses (FOs) are popular treatment to alleviate several abnormalities of lower extremity. FO designs might alter lower extremity biomechanics differently, but the association is not yet known. This review aimed to evaluate how different ... -
Computationally efficient model to predict the deformations of a cellular foot orthotic
(Elsevier, 2022-04-21)Background Foot orthotics (FOs) are frequently prescribed to provide comfortable walking for patients. Finite element (FE) simulation and 3D printing pave the way to analyse, optimize and fabricate functionally graded lattice FOs where the local ... -
The effect of intracortical bone pin on shoulder kinematics during dynamic activities
(Taylor and Francis, 2019-06-30)Intracortical bone pins are introduced as gold standard for analysing skeletal motion because of eliminating soft tissue artefact. However, excluding this methodological error might be in cost of intervening movement pattern by local anaesthesia and ... -
Numerical homogenization of a linearly elastic honeycomb lattice structure and comparison with analytical and experimental results
(Elsevier, 2022-01-15)This paper presents a verification and validation analysis of Finite Element (FE) models predicting the mechanical response of linearly elastic honeycomb structures. We have studied three main models, namely: analytical models based on beam theories, ... -
Optimal 3D arm strategies for maximizing twist rotation during somersault of a rigid-body model
(Springer, 2020-10-07)Looking for new arm strategies for better twisting performances during a backward somersault is of interest for the acrobatic sports community while being a complex mechanical problem due to the nonlinearity of the dynamics involved. As the pursued ... -
Shoulder electromyography-based indicators to assess manifestation of muscle fatigue during laboratory-simulated manual handling task
(Taylor and Francis, 2021-08-14)Muscle fatigue is a risk factor for developing shoulder musculoskeletal disorders. The aim of this study was to identify shoulder electromyographic indicators that are most indicative of muscle fatigue during a laboratory simulated manual handling task. ... -
Surrogate optimization of a lattice foot orthotic
(Elsevier, 2022-11-30)Background: Additive manufacturing enables to print patient-specific Foot Orthotics (FOs). In FOs featuring lattice structures, the variation of the cell’s dimensions provides a locally variable stiffness to meet the therapeutic needs of each patient. ...
