Measurement and mathematical modeling of motion of the human ankle joint complex
Accurate knowledge on how the human body uses a combination of passive constraints and active controls to control joint motion during different activities is important to clinical practice. A necessary prerequisite for studying the control is a complete evaluation of the kinematics of joints. This t...
