By following the common definition of forward-dynamics simulations, ie predicting movement
based on (neural) muscle activity, this work describes, for the first time, a forward-dynamics …

Computational modeling provides a framework to understand human movement control. For
this approach, physiologically motivated and experimentally validated models are required …

In this chapter, we introduce musculoskeletal modelling and how such models can be
applied to estimate internal quantities that are difficult or impossible to measure …

This study provides a forward-muscular inverse-skeletal dynamics framework for
musculoskeletal simulations. The simulation framework works based on solving the muscle …

This paper presents a novel fiber-based muscle model for the forward dynamics of the
musculoskeletal system. While bones are represented by rigid bodies, the muscles are …

Background. Knowledge of the musculoskeletal loading conditions during strength training
is essential for performance monitoring, injury prevention, rehabilitation, and training design …

The inverse dynamics technique applied to musculoskeletal models, and supported by
optimisation techniques, is used extensively to estimate muscle and joint reaction forces …

The present paper surveys recent developments in constitutive and computational modelling
of skeletal muscles, concerning mainly the generalization to two-and three-dimensional (2D …

Mathematical models and computer simulations have the great potential to substantially
increase our understanding of the biophysical behavior of the neuromuscular system. This …

Muscle-driven simulations have been widely adopted to study muscle-tendon behavior;
several generic musculoskeletal models have been developed, and their biofidelity …
