Study of different structures of the knee joint for a planar bipedal robot. In 9th IEEE-RAS International Conference on Humanoid Robots, Humanoids'09, pages 113-120, 2009.Hamon A,Aoustin Y. Study of different structures of the knee joint for a planar bipedal robot[C]/ / 9th IEEE-RAS ...
Moreover, we can use for a bipedal robot a closed structure, which gives an additional degree of freedom in translation for the knee joint in the sagittal plane. Therefore, the aim of this paper is to study two different bipedal robots. One with single axis knee joints and an other with...
A knee joint simulator with anatomical reconstruction of the joint surfaces and of the ligamentous structures was built for teaching purposes. With this simulator it is possible to demonstrate the anatomy, physiology and kinematics of knee ligaments, to teach and learn how to conduct ligamentous ins...
This article describes the complex anatomic structures that pass across the lateral aspect of the knee, particularly the iliotibial tract and the underlying anterolateral ligament and capsule. It provides data on their strength and roles in controlling tibiofemoral joint laxity and stability. These ...
The medial side of the knee is mainly composed of the superficial tibial collateral ligament (s-TCL), capsular ligaments such as the deep TCL(d-TCL), the posterior oblique ligament (POL), the anterior oblique ligament (AOL), the distal insertions of the.

and the inside (cruciate ligaments) of the knee together. The ligaments stabilize the knee. The tibia and femur are cushioned by two pieces of cartilage called the meniscus. The knee joint is surrounded bybursae, which are fluid-filled sacs that protect structures in the knee against friction....
In recent years,the joint stiffness of the spatial structures has become one of the major research in the field of building engineering.In this paper,a state-of-the-art review of research on the joint stiffness is presented,including the mathematical models,the rigid properties of different joint...
