Biomechanical Analysis of the Human Knee Joint.

Exercise is an indispensable part of human daily life. The knee joint is inseparable from human movement. The knee is relatively fragile and easy to get injuries. Therefore, the biomechanical properties of knee joints were studied. The VICON T40S 3D motion acquisition and analysis system and the AMTI 3D force measurement platform were used to collect the lower limb kinematics and dynamics data of five male volunteers. Then the knee angle and moment of the human body are analyzed, the foot pressure was obtained by force plate, and the ground reaction force was obtained. The results show that: (1) in terms of knee flexion and extension torques, the peak stretching torques occurred in about 25% and 65% of the gait cycles. At the beginning of the gait, which is the flexion moment, the knee joint produces a moment of -24.65 Nmm, 25% of gait cycles reached the maximum peak value of 896.89 Nmm, 65% of gait cycles reached the second peak value of 315.81 Nmm; (2) The change of reaction force in a gait cycle is: when the ground starts to react, the ground reaction reaches 600 N. At normal times, the ground reaction force rapidly rises to the maximum value of 890 N; when the gait is in the middle of a single support phase, the ground reaction force is 462 N; when the ankle joint moves in plantar flexion, the ground reaction force increases to 830 N again; finally, when the toe is lifted off the ground, the ground reaction force quickly drops to zero; (3) in the course of a gait cycle, the spatial and temporal parameter curve distribution of the subjects was consistent, and the difference was not significant (
