Next-generation computational models to understand human joints

该项目旨在通过结合最先进的成像和高保真的生物力学模型来研究人类关节系统。该项目开发的方法有望产生研究肌肉骨骼组织对活动的动态反应的新方法，包括肌肉骨骼生理学如何适应生物力学刺激。预期的结果包括建立一种非侵入性的方法来表征整个关节系统。该项目将在人体关节在形态、功能、动力学和负荷方面的生物力学调节方面提供重要的知识，这可能有助于社会的许多方面指导体育活动的选择。

This project aims to investigate human joint systems through combining state-of-the-art imaging and high-fidelity biomechanical models. The methods developed in this project are expected to generate new ways of studying the dynamic response of musculoskeletal tissues to activity, including how musculoskeletal physiology can adapt to biomechanical stimuli. Expected outcomes include establishing a non-invasive method for characterising whole joint systems. This project will provide significant knowledge gain on the biomechanical regulation of human joints across form, function, dynamics and loading which may help across many facets of society to guide physical activity choices.
