[Biodynamic response of the human shank subjected to impulse load].
This paper reported the establishment of biodynamic modelling of the human shank in the sagittal palne while the human thigh is fixed. And when the shank is subjected to the two types of externally applied impulse loads, the forces associated with the four main ligaments, as well as the bone-to-bone contact forces in the knee joint are numerically obtained. The contact point locations are also presented together with the angular motions of the lower limb segments.
