EMG-Informed Neuromusculoskeletal Simulations Increase the Accuracy of the Estimation of Knee Joint Contact Forces During Sub-optimal Level Walking
While the static optimization approach provides reasonable estimates for subjects exhibiting typical gait, the EMG-assisted approach should be preferred and employed when studying clinical populations or patients exhibiting abnormal walking patterns.
