abstract="This paper presents the development of a detailed articulating three-dimensional finite-element model of the human knee, derived from MRI scan images. The model utilises precise material models and many contact interfaces in order to produce a realistic kinematic response. The behaviour of the model was examined within two fields of biomechanical simulations: general life and car-crash. These simulations were performed with the non-linear explicit dynamic code PAM-SAFE trade mark. The knee model produced results that compared favourably with existing literature. Such a model (together with other joint models that could be constructed using the same techniques) would be a valuable tool for examining new designs of prosthesis and mechanisms of injury.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
