Study of the influence of the contact model on the dynamic response of a biomechanical multibody knee model

This work presents a study of the influence of the contact model on the dynamic response of the human knee joint. For this purpose a multibody knee model composed by two rigid bodies, femur and tibia, and four nonlinear springs that represent the main knee ligaments, was used. Computational simulati...
