DOI Web Site 2 Citations

Abstract

<jats:p>The major load-bearing joints of the body are the hip, knee and ankle. Arthritic disability manifests itself principally at the hip and knee. Information will be presented on the forces transmitted at the hip and knee joints in respect of magnitude, direction and variation with time. The activities to be reviewed will include walking, ramp and stair ascent and descent, and the data will include the magnitudes of the relative movements between adjacent segments and the corresponding rates.</jats:p>
