How much modeling details are needed for musculoskeletal simulations in children with cerebral palsy? Dr Kainz in collaboration with colleagues from KU Leuven (Belgium) compared generic-scaled with highly subject-specific models and showed how including/excluding personalized musculoskeletal geometry and motor control affect simulation results. The paper is freely available with the following link ttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.clinbiomech.2021.105402

Three abstracts from the Neuromechanics Research Group got accepted for presentations at the International Society of Biomechanics Conference. Two papers, one from PhD student Willi Koller and one from Ass-Prof Hans Kainz, are related to musculoskeletal modelling in children with cerebral palsy, whereas the paper from BSc student Lorenz Zweier focusses on motor control during […]
