In order to optimize function, hip biomechanics should be restored to as near normal as possible. The goal of this pilot study was to determine whether or not it is feasible to compute the vectorial hip reaction force pathways on the head of the prosthesis and the force angles relative to the cup of the prosthesis that occur during gait in total hip replacement patients, serving as an objective measurement of the functional outcome following hip replacement. A three-dimensional gait analysis, measuring ground reaction forces and kinematics, was performed. The data retrieved from the gait analysis was used as the input for the musculoskeletal model to compute vectorial joint reaction forces for data processing. To evaluate the position and orientation of the joint reaction forces, the force path, as well as the force angles for the operated and non-operated joint, has been calculated during the stance phase of the specific leg. The force path for subject 2 on the non-operated side is only located in the posterior-lateral quarter, as is the force path for subject 1. In contrast to this subject, the force path for subject 2 at the operated hip joint can be found only within the anterior quarter of the head of the implant, where it is nearly equally distributed in the medio-lateral half of the prosthesis head. The force-inclination angles on the cup of subject 1, with respect to the plane of the socket face, indicates that the force vector is mainly positioned in the same quadrant when compared with subject 2 (in a cup-fixed coordinate system). The force-anteversion angle behaves similarly to the force-inclination angle, even when the effects are not as pronounced. The proposed methods in this article are aiming to define two functional outcomes of total hip replacement that are related to wear and rim loading. It is accepted that wear is not only a function of time, but a function of use. Owing to the methods listed in this article, we are able to determine a) the applied force and b) the sliding distance (force pathway) in a subject-specific manner. The computed hip-reaction force angles and the distance to the rim cup are a measurement for cup or rim loading, and occurs in the so-called safe-zones. This method may well give us insight into the biomechanical situation during gait, after receiving total hip replacement, that we need to fully understand the mechanisms acting on a hip joint and to prove a possible increase of functional outcome after receiving total hip replacement.}, subject = {H{\"u}ftgelenkprothese}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{AuerKubowitschKrutschetal., author = {Auer, Simon and Kubowitsch, Simone and Krutsch, Werner and Renkawitz, Tobias and S{\"u}ß, Franz and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Effect of mental demand on knee forces in professional youth soccer players}, series = {ISBS Proceedings Archive}, volume = {38}, booktitle = {ISBS Proceedings Archive}, number = {1, Art. 28}, abstract = {Soccer is one of the most popular sports all around the world. It is an injurious type of sport with a focus on lower extremities and high psychological pressure during matches. The stressor is linked with injuries and an increased musculoskeletal loading. This study investigates the influence of cognitive stress on the load profile of the knee joint. Twelve professional youth soccer players performed highly dynamic runs with and without additional cognitive stress. The runs were analysed with a musculoskeletal simulation software. The data analysis shows no difference in knee joint reaction loading under additional mental stress compared to the baseline. Yet running times are significantly lower in the baseline. While there is no increase in the joint loads, the running times indicate an altered movement behaviour when the subjects are exposed to additional mental demand.}, subject = {Kniegelenk}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WeberDendorferGrifkaetal., author = {Weber, Tim and Dendorfer, Sebastian and Grifka, Joachim and Weber, Markus and W{\"o}rner, Michael and Dullien, Silvia and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Renkawitz, Tobias}, title = {Verbessert die computerassistierte Femur First Operationstechnik f{\"u}r die H{\"u}ftendoprothetik den muskuloskelettalen Lastfall auf das H{\"u}ftgelenk?}, series = {DKOU 2015, Deutscher Kongress f{\"u}r Orthop{\"a}die und Unfallchirurgie 2015}, booktitle = {DKOU 2015, Deutscher Kongress f{\"u}r Orthop{\"a}die und Unfallchirurgie 2015}, language = {de} } @inproceedings{WeberRenkawitzGrifkaetal., author = {Weber, Tim and Renkawitz, Tobias and Grifka, Joachim and Bulstra, Sjoerd K. and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {The musculoskeletal load scenario of computer-assisted Femur-First THR up to one year after surgery}, series = {VI International Conference on Computational Bioengineering, Barcelona, Sept. 2015}, booktitle = {VI International Conference on Computational Bioengineering, Barcelona, Sept. 2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WeberRenkawitzBulstraetal., author = {Weber, Tim and Renkawitz, Tobias and Bulstra, Sjoerd K. and Grifka, Joachim and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Dendorfer, Sebastian}, title = {Biomechanics of computer-assisted vs. conventional THR after one year follow up}, series = {XXV Congress of the International Society of Biomechanics, Glasgow, UK, 12th-16th July 2015}, booktitle = {XXV Congress of the International Society of Biomechanics, Glasgow, UK, 12th-16th July 2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WeberDendorferBulstraetal., author = {Weber, Tim and Dendorfer, Sebastian and Bulstra, Sjoerd K. and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Renkawitz, Tobias}, title = {Musculoskeletal modeling for orthopedic surgery - Applications and chances}, series = {Orthopedics meets Engineering, Regensburg, 2015}, booktitle = {Orthopedics meets Engineering, Regensburg, 2015}, language = {en} } @inproceedings{WeberDendorferBulstraetal., author = {Weber, Tim and Dendorfer, Sebastian and Bulstra, Sjoerd K. and Verkerke, Gijsbertus Jacob and Renkawitz, Tobias}, title = {Biomechanical Outcome after computer-assisted vs. Conventional THR}, series = {ANSYS Conference \& 32th CADFEM Users' Meeting 2014, 04.-06.
