Abstract

The objective of this study is to increase the understanding of lower limb response when subjected to quasi-static lateral loads as a complement to previous studies aimed at integrating it into the human mathematical model. In the study, shearing and bending tests were carried out with 20 fresh human legs in quasi-static lateral load. These tests were conducted to obtain lesions in the knee joint area, and to assess the behavior law of the whole extended knee joint in quasi-static shearing or bending lateral load.
