Abstract Changes of direction (CODs) are key manoeuvres linked to decisive moments in
sport and are also key actions associated with lower limb injuries. During sport athletes …

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries are one of the most common knee pathologies
sustained during athletic participation and are characterised by long convalescence periods …

Background Most cutting biomechanical studies investigate performance and knee joint load
determinants independently. This is surprising because cutting is an important action linked …

Purpose This study aimed to determine if a preseason field-based test battery was
prospectively associated with noncontact anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury in elite …

Change of direction (COD) manoeuvres are associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)
injury risk due to the propensity to generate large multiplanar knee joint loads. Given the …

This review identifies the three-dimensional knee loads that have the highest risk of injuring
the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in the athlete. It is the combination of the muscular …

Objective To critically evaluate the effect of limb dominance on change of direction (COD)
biomechanics associated with increased ACL injury-risk. Methods A systematic review of the …

Background To systematically review the association between knee abduction kinematics
and kinetics during weight-bearing activities at baseline and the risk of future anterior …

This paper explores the use of biomechanics in identifying the mechanistic causes of
musculoskeletal tissue injury and degeneration. It appraises how biomechanics has been …

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries commonly occur during single‐leg landing tasks
and are a burdensome condition. Previous studies indicate that muscle forces play an …
