▼ Although people can typically maintain balance on moving trains, or press the appropriate button on an elevator with little conscious effort, the apparent ease of these sensorimotor tasks is courtesy of neural mechanisms that continuously interpret many sensory input signals to activate muscles throughout the body. The overall hypothesis of this work is that motor behaviors emerge from the interacting constraints and features of the nervous and musculoskeletal systems. The nervous system may simplify the control problem by recruiting muscles in groups called muscle synergies rather than individually. Because muscles cannot be recruited individually, muscle synergies may represent a neural constraint on behavior. However, the constraints of the musculoskeletal system and environment may also contribute to determining motor behaviors, and so must be considered in order to identify and interpret muscle synergies. Here, I integrated techniques from musculoskeletal modeling, control systems engineering, and data analysis to identify neural and biomechanical constraints that determine the muscle activity and ground reaction forces during the automatic postural response (APR) in cats. First, I quantified the musculoskeletal constraints on force production during postural tasks in a detailed, 3D musculoskeletal model of the cat hindlimb. I demonstrated that biomechanical constraints on force production in the isolated hindlimb do not uniquely determine the characteristic patterns of force activity observed during the APR. However, when I constrained the muscles in the model to activate in a few muscle synergies based on experimental data, the force production capability drastically changed, exhibiting a characteristic rotation with the limb axis as the limb posture was varied that closely matched experimental data. Finally, after extending the musculoskeletal model to be quadrupedal, I simulated the optimal feedforward control of individual muscles or muscle synergies to regulate the center of mass (CoM) during the postural task. I demonstrated that both muscle synergy control and optimal muscle control reproduced the characteristic force patterns observed during postural tasks. These results are consistent with the hypothesis that the nervous system may use a low-dimension control scheme based on muscle synergies to approximate the optimal motor solution for the postural task given the constraints of the musculoskeletal system. One primary contribution of this work was to demonstrate that the influences of biomechanical mechanisms in determining motor behaviors may be unclear in reduced models, a factor that may need to be considered in other studies of motor control. The biomechanical constraints on force production in the isolated hindlimb did not predict the stereotypical forces observed during the APR unless a muscle synergy organization was imposed, suggesting that neural constraints were critical in resolving musculoskeletal redundancy during the postural task. However, when the model was extended to represent the… Advisors/Committee Members: Ting, Lena (Committee Chair), Burkholder, Thomas (Committee Member), DeWeerth, Steve (Committee Member), Lee, Robert (Committee Member), Rozell, Christopher (Committee Member).

▼ Abstract Patients undergoing orthopedic surgery experience severe postoperative pain that is frequently undertreated. Nurses play an important role in the management of postoperative pain in hospitalized patients because they perform pain assessments on patients, administer pain medications and inform physicians when patients experience inadequate pain relief from prescribed medications. The objective of this study was to determine what constructs from the Integrated Behavioral Model (IBM) are predictors for intentions to administer PRN opioid analgesics for pain relief to hospitalized postoperative orthopedic patients.This study utilized a non-experimental quantitative format. A representative national random sample of nurses who regularly provide care for postoperative orthopedic patients who are hospitalized were selected to participate in the study. There were 420 surveys returned for a 53% response rate, with the majority of participants being female (92.3%), Caucasian (86.8%), and having earned a bachelor’s degree (55.7%). A statistically significant association was found with the demographic characteristics of age, level of education, hospital type and having orthopedic surgery and staying in the hospital and nurses’ intentions to administer PRN opioid analgesics for pain. A statistically significant association was found with nurses’ self-efficacy and their intentions to administer PRN opioid analgesics when there were time and dosage stipulations. Other constructs from the IBM that were found to have statistically significant associations with nurses’ intentions to administer PRN opioids included nurses’ normative beliefs and its factors, perceived control, and instrumental attitude. No statistically significant association was found between nurses’ knowledge or their underlying beliefs and their intentions to administer PRN opioid analgesics. The significant predictors for nurses’ intentions to administer opioid analgesics included self-efficacy, perceived control, normative beliefs total score, and behavioral beliefs (instrumental attitude). Salience of the behavior, knowledge, education, number of years caring for postoperative orthopedic patients, and orthopedic surgery requiring an overnight stay in the hospital were also significant predictors of nurses’ intentions in this study. Path analysis was done separately for each intention item (intention to administer PRN opioids, intention to administer PRN opioids with a dosage stipulation and intention to administer PRN opioid with a timing stipulation). The significant predictors for nurses’ intention to administer opioid analgesics without a time or dosage stipulation include self-efficacy (ß=0.15), normative beliefs (ß=0.21) and salience of the behavior (ß=0.25). The significant predictors for nurses’ intentions to administer opioids when there was a dosage stipulation include salience (ß=0.12) and normative beliefs (ß=0.19). Finally, the significant predictors that had a direct effect on intention when there was a time stipulation are salience (ß=0.11)… Advisors/Committee Members: Sheu, Jiunn-Jye (Committee Chair).

▼ The purpose of this dissertation was to investigate the biomechanics of human running. Running is one of the world's most popular sporting and leisure activities and is widely regarded as the most convenient and least costly form of exercise. For the elite population in particular, running is more than just a hobby; it is a profession in a highly competitive world where athletes strive to improve performance and develop technique. It is therefore not surprising that running is associated with the highest proportion of musculoskeletal injury in the sporting world, occurring in both the elite and non-elite population. Despite the vast wealth of knowledge on joint function during running, it is still not understood how the actions of the individual lower-limb muscles coordinate the motion of the body to reach the fastest speeds possible. Running, like all human movements, are achieved through the contraction of skeletal muscle, providing the forces and energy required to support the body against gravity, propel the body forward, and maintain balance and stability in each stride. Because it is not possible to non-invasively measure the forces developed by individual muscle forces in vivo, musculoskeletal models of the body are the only means available to explore the large-scale synergies of muscle coordination and ascertain the roles of individual muscles. In this dissertation, detailed computer models of the musculoskeletal system were used in conjunction with novel experimental data of the motion and ground forces produced by nine habitual runners to simulate the task of overground running at four different speeds (3.5 m/s, 5.2 m/s, 7.0 m/s and 9.0 m/s). Using the simulation results, the key muscle groups responsible for: (i) accelerating the lower limbs and whole-body center-of-mass; and (ii) transferring mechanical energy throughout the segments of the body were determined. These data provide a deeper understanding of locomotive control, beyond the current knowledge of joint function, by describing the individual muscular strategies used to increase running speed. A particular emphasis of this dissertation was placed in evaluating existing models of ground contact, which form the interface between the skeleton and its external surroundings. Ground contact models are considered one of the most difficult problems in computational mechanics and have the potential to influence interpretations of muscle function predicted by musculoskeletal models. In the process, a novel, multiple-point ground contact model with smoothly transitioning constraints was adapted to provide robust interpretations of muscle function across all running speeds and under all contact conditions, catering for both rear-foot-strikers and toe-strikers. Taken together, accurate models of both the musculoskeletal system and ground interaction facilitate the quantitative…

▼ Muscles move and stabilize the body. People with motor deficits, regardless of the deficit’s origin, have less control and/or worse coordination or their muscles which seriously affects their quality of life and ability to do basic tasks for themselves. While different methods of rehabilitation and therapy can help those with motor deficits increase their motor control, the ability to improve upon these efforts is limited by an incomplete understanding how muscle activity is coordinated. The degree to which muscle activity is determined by neural selection or by biomechanics is unresolved; musculoskeletal redundancy allows for variations in the muscle activation patterns used to control movement, but it is unknown how much this redundancy constrains or allows variations in muscle activity. Computational musculoskeletal models are commonly used to quantify redundancy, but contradictory results are found in the literature: some studies suggest wide feasible ranges of muscle activity for the nervous system to control, while others suggest biomechanics largely determine muscle coordination. We hypothesized that the contradictory results are because of different numbers of muscles and degrees-of-freedom (DoFs) in the models used, and that models with more realistic complexity allow for more variability in muscle coordination. We tested redundancy by looking at the role of individual muscles for a given task. A redundant muscle shares function with another muscle, and the more function it shares the more redundant it is. For the purposes of this study, we quantified a muscle’s redundancy for a task by measuring the robustness of static force production to the loss of that muscle’s function. To compare a standard detailed musculoskeletal model with a simplified model from the literature, we systematically varied both the number of muscles and kinematic DoFs of a musculoskeletal model and tested the significance of individual muscles in each model by looking at 1) the sensitivity of static force production to single muscle loss via the set of biomechanically feasible forces (feasible force set, FFS) and 2) the feasible ranges of muscle activations (feasible muscle activation ranges, FMARs) at maximum force in the sagittal plane. We demonstrated that results from many studies that used simplified models do not generalize to more realistic systems, while more realistic models suggest that very few muscles are constrained by biomechanics. The sensitivity of the FFS to single muscle loss decreased as model complexity increased, and the robustness of the FFS to general single muscle loss increases as model complexity increased. We also showed muscle activity is often unconstrained even at maximum forces; most muscles exhibited wide FMARs at maximum force in many or most force directions. Only a few muscles (the hip-knee biarticular muscles) were completely constrained for all maximum sagittal plane force directions. Further, we showed that the effects of complexity in muscles and DoFs observed in these cases are general for any… Advisors/Committee Members: Ting, Lena H.

Dans les domaines de la réhabilitation, des sciences du sport et de l'ergonomie, l'évaluation des capacités de génération de force (CGF) peut aider à mieux comprendre les capacités motrices humaines. Le but de cette thèse a été d'évaluer les CGF du membre supérieur prédites au moyen de deux types de formalismes. Le premier provient du domaine de la robotique et a été utilisé pour déterminer l'ellipsoïde de force normalisé (EFN) et biomécanique (EFB), le polytope de force normalisé (PFN) et biomécanique (PFB). Pour une posture, ils sont calculés à partir d’un modèle polyarticulé du membre supérieur et de données sur les couples articulaires isométriques maximaux. Le second type fait appel à un modèle musculosquelettique afin de modéliser les CGF sous la forme d’un polytope de forces (PFMS). Tous ces modèles ont été comparés à un polytope de forces mesurées (PFM). Pour le construire, les forces maximales isométriques exercées par le membre supérieur au niveau de la main ont été évaluées dans vingt-six directions différentes. Enfin, le PFMS a été appliqué dans le cadre de la propulsion en fauteuil roulant afin de caractériser l'application des forces lors de cette tâche et un nouvel indice d’évaluation de la performance postural (IPP) a été proposé.

In fields like rehabilitation, sports sciences and ergonomics, the evaluation of the force feasible set (FFS) of the human limbs may help to better understand the human motor abilities. The aim of this thesis was to compare the upper-limb force capacity at the hand predicted by two different kinds of FFS formalism. The first one originating from the robotics field was used to compute the force ellipsoid (FE), scaled force ellipsoid (SFE), force polytope (FP) and scaled force polytope (SFP). For one posture, they are computed from the upper-limb model and hypotheses and data on maximum isometric joint torques. The second one permitted to compute the FFS modeled as a force polytope from a musculoskeletal model (MSFP). All the previously mentioned models were compared with a measured force polytope (MFP). To construct it, the maximum isometric forces exerted at the hand were assessed in twenty-six directions of the Cartesian space. Then, the MSFP was applied to the manual wheelchair propulsion in order to characterize the forces applied on the handrim during this task and a new evaluation index of postural performance (IPP) was also introduced.

Les modèles biomécaniques éléments finis (EF) sont couramment utilisés dans de nombreux domaines. Ces modèles tendent depuis quelques années à être actifs, capable donc de générer des efforts musculaires et des mouvements. L’étape suivante consiste à rendre ces modèles réactifs, c’est-à-dire capable de réagir à une situation quelconque par des contractions musculaires et des mouvements. C’est dans cet optique que ce projet a été décomposé en 3 étapes. La première consistait à réaliser un modèle biomécanique détaillé capable de contractions musculaires et de mouvements. La seconde étape consistait à introduire des réflexes. Pour cela des modèles de capteurs sensoriels (fuseaux neuromusculaires et organes tendineux de golgi) et les réflexes associés (réflexes myotatiques et myotatiques inverses) ont ensuite été introduits au sein même du modèle. Le modèle ainsi obtenu a pu ensuite être validé grâce à une campagne expérimentale de quantification du réflexe d’étirement du tendon du biceps brachial. La dernière étape consistait à introduire des réactions de niveau supérieur, c’est-à-dire des mouvements volontaires. Pour cela une méthode de contrôle basée sur de l’apprentissage et l’optimisation a permis de générer ces mouvements et de les contrôler.En conclusion, l’introduction de boucles sensorielles et motrices de différents niveaux dans un modèle EF permet de rendre ce dernier réactif à son environnement. En effet, le modèle est ainsi capable de générer un mouvement selon des objectifs et des contraintes. Il est également capable d’adapter la contraction musculaire en fonction des évènements intervenant lors de la réalisation du mouvement.

Biomechanical finite elements (FE) models are commonly used in the field of road safety, sport and medicine. These models tended in recent years to be active, i.e. able to generate muscular efforts or movements. The next step is to make these models reactive, i.e. able to react to a situation with muscle contractions and movement. It is in this context that this project was broken down into 3 steps. The first step was to create a detailed biomechanical model capable of movements and muscle contractions. The second step was to introduce reflexes. For this, physiological sensors models (neuromuscular spindles and golgi tendon organs) and the associated reflexes associated (myotatic and inverse myotatic reflexes) were then integrated into the model. The model thus obtained could then be validated thanks to an experimental campaign of characterization of the deep tendon reflex of the biceps brachial. The last step was to introduce higher-level reactions, i.e. voluntary movements. For this purpose, a control method based on learning and optimization has made it possible to generate and control these movements.In conclusion, the introduction of sensory and motor loops of different into an FE model makes the latter reactive to its environment.

▼ Many patient characteristics can affect joint function; yet the implications of this for musculoskeletal disorders and their treatment are not well understood. A better understanding of these relationships could aid in clinical decision making and make it easier to better tailor treatments to each patient. In this work, methods to enable the study of patient variability were proposed and used to investigate the relationship among patient characteristics, function, and surgical outcomes. A method to remove bias from waveform data using principal component analysis was introduced that could be used to combine motion analysis data from different laboratories, thus enabling multicentre studies and larger sample sizes. In a second study, patient characteristics and biomechanical measures associated with the ability of valgus unloader braces to reduce predicted medial compartment contact forces were identified. The hip adduction moment during unbraced walking was the best predictor of mechanical brace effectiveness. The remainder of this thesis focused on articular geometry, a source of patient variability that has previously been shown to be correlated with joint function and pathology. Here, a framework was proposed that can be used to predict the causal effects of geometry on function. Knee joint geometry was characterized and manipulated through statistical shape modelling and functional effects on knee kinematics, cartilage contact, and ligament forces were predicted using musculoskeletal simulation. This framework was used to examine the impact of knee joint geometry on functional outcomes of simulated tibial tubercle osteotomy, a surgery that realigns the patellar tendon to treat patellar instability. It was found that knees with shallow patellofemoral geometry were much more sensitive to medial/lateral placement of the patellar tendon insertion than those with deep geometry. Finally, the potential to use these techniques to inform clinical decision making through patient-specific modelling was explored in a case study of a tibial tubercle osteotomy patient.

▼ The overall aim of this thesis is to gain epidemiological knowledge about musculoskeletal pain in the upper body in light physical work, in relation to gender, psychosocial factors, and computer use; and to compare different methods for analyzing common and recurrent binary outcomes. Two study groups were investigated using questionnaire data: (a) computer users in the Swedish workforce and (b) a cohort of university students. Regression models used were ordinary logistic model, Cox model (for calculating prevalence ratios), marginal logistic model (GEE), random intercept logistic model (GLMM), Markov logistic model and Poisson model. Effect measures used were odds ratio, risk ratio and risk difference. Musculoskeletal pain in the upper body was more prevalent among women than among men, even among young adults. Risk factors among computer users in the workforce were high work demands, and using the computer most of the work-day (women). Protective factors were work control and to learn and develop at work, and for women support from superiors. In the university cohort stress, high work/study demands and computer use break pattern were identified as risk factors for neck pain. Stress was a risk factor associated both with developing and ongoing neck pain, and had an impact on both the group-average risk and the subject-specific risk of neck pain. Computer use break pattern had an impact on the group-average risk for neck pain, but on the subject-specific risk only for women. Among women stress and computer use break pattern interacted. The effect of presence of both factors exceeded the additive effect of each. Simple questions, about present neck pain and neck pain period past year, captured features of pain, such as general health, sleep disturbance, stress, and general performance. Neck pain period past year did not reflect more serious pain compared to present neck pain. The choice of statistical model should be based on whether a group-average risk or a subject-specific risk is of clinical relevance. Women and men differed more in the absolute effect measures than in the relative, regarding neck pain. The causality between risk factors and neck pain may differ between women and men.

▼ Increased cyclic compressive loading in the medial compartment of the knee is associated with the progression of knee osteoarthritis (OA). However as medial knee OA is accompanied by a range of neuromuscular, morphological and structural changes throughout the lower limb, a clear consensus of the etiology of the disease is yet to emerge. Of particular recent interest are the roles of non-knee-spanning muscles and the lower-limb kinematic chain in the pathomechanics of knee OA. Joint loads during gait occur due to contributions from all muscles, gravity and inertia. As such the aim of this work was to utilise experimental gait data in conjunction with musculoskeletal modelling to undertake a novel and detailed examination of these individual constituent factors influencing loading in the osteoarthritic knee. Specifically, the objective was to decompose the time-histories of loads in the medial and lateral tibiofemoral compartments of osteoarthritic knees into contributions by individual muscles, gravity and inertia, and to explain the results in light of the known neuro-musculoskeletal changes associated with OA. A novel computational method for decomposing the tibiofemoral compartment loads into contributions by muscles, gravity and inertia was developed and integrated into an advanced musculoskeletal modelling pipeline. Experimental gait data from varus mal-aligned unilateral medial knee OA patients and healthy controls were input into the musculoskeletal modelling pipeline and used to quantify the contributions to the forces and cumulative loads in the medial and lateral compartments of the tibiofemoral-joint, and also to surrogate measures of medial compartment loading. The findings have revealed substantive differences in the composition of joint loads between healthy and osteoarthritic knees, and have explained some of the underlying mechanisms by which elevated knee-joint loads arise in OA patients. Importantly, the findings establish the substantial role played by non-knee-spanning muscles in modulating knee-joint loads. Furthermore, this thesis has also quantified and explained some of the potential limitations associated with surrogate measure of joint loads. The improved understanding of the pathomechanics of medial knee OA brought about by this thesis may be potentially valuable in the design of non-pharmacologic interventions to mitigate medial knee OA progression, and may facilitate the development of more robust surrogate measures of knee-joint loads to improve clinical assessment of OA patients.

A modelagem e simulação computacional do movimento e da postura de seres humanos vem sendo empregados há muitos anos na medicina e fisioterapia em vários aspectos tais como, auxílio em cirurgias, reabilitação de deficientes físicos, bem como em muitas outras atividades desempenhadas por profissionais da área de saúde. Entretanto, a maioria dos sistemas baseados nesta tecnologia nção apresentam carac- terísticas primordiais ao treinamento de uso de próteses, como exemplo simulação de movimentos dos membros por meio de valores de força aplicadas pelos músculos. Portanto, este trabalho tem como objetivo investigar técnicas computacionais que suportam eficientemente as simulações acima referidas, bem como possibilitem ao profissional da área uma interface intuitiva para manipulação dos parâmetros necessários neste tipo de sistema. Um estudo dos princípios biomecânicos é apresentado, destacando-se os músculos, ar- ticulações e ossos (propostos neste trabalho como biblioteca de classes genéricas) relacionados aos movimentos do membro superior humano, bem como as equações necessárias à análise de equilíbrio estático do corpo. Também é apresentado um estudo sobre os principais sistemas de modelagem e simulação de membros do corpo humano disponíveis no meio científico. Com base nestes estudos, procurou-se definir as limitações dos sistemas existentes em termos de simulações por meio de forças aplicadas pelos músculos em tempo de execução e, partindo destas limitações, propor um sistema que permitisse a modelagem músculo-esquelética e a simulação de movimentos do membro superior a partir da alteração dos valores das forças aplicadas pelos músculos em tempo de execução do movimento. Objetivando uma interface com alto nível de interação, técnicas de Realidade Virtual foram investigadas no desenvolvimento do sistema. Os parâmetros necessários para simulação do movimento são obtidos por meio de objetos de interface ou por um arquivo que contém valores de forças aplicadas pelos músculos, aplicadas em um dado intervalo do tempo. Após uma série de experimentos, observou-se que o sistema permite, além da alteração do valor das forças aplicadas pelos músculos durante a simulação do movimento, a interação do usuário com o modelo do membro superior humano, podendo avaliar sob vários pontos de vista, o efeito destas no membro modelado.

The computational modelling and simulation of the motion and gait of human beings have been employed for many years in medicine and physiotherapy in several aspects such as, aid in surgeries, amputee treatments, as well as in many other activities performed by professionals of the health area. However, most of the systems based on this technology do not present the main characteristics to prosthesis training, for example, the simulation of limb motion responding to forces applied by the muscles. Therefore, this work has the objective of investigating computational techniques that eciently support the simulations cited above, and also to provide an intuitive interface for manipulation of the necessary…

▼ Stroke rehabilitation technologies have focused on reducing treatment cost while improving effectiveness. Rehabilitation robots are generally developed for home and clinical usage to: 1) deliver repetitive and stimulating practice to post-stroke patients, 2) minimize therapist interventions, and 3) increase the number of patients per therapist, thereby decreasing the associated cost. The control of rehabilitation robots is often limited to black- or gray-box approaches; thus, safety issues regarding the human-robot interaction are not easily considered. Furthermore, despite numerous studies of control strategies for rehabilitation, there are very few rehabilitation robots in which the tasks are implemented using optimal control theory. Optimal controllers using physics-based models have the potential to overcome these issues. This thesis presents advanced impedance- and model-based controllers for an end-effector-based upper extremity stroke rehabilitation robot. The final goal is to implement a biomechanically-plausible real-time nonlinear model predictive control for the studied rehabilitation system. The real-time term indicates that the controller computations finish within the sampling frequency time. This control structure, along with advanced impedance-based controllers, can be applied to any human-environment interactions. This makes them promising tools for different types of assistive devices, exoskeletons, active prostheses and orthoses, and exercise equipment. In this thesis, a high-fidelity biomechatronic model of the human-robot interaction is developed. The rehabilitation robot is a 2 degree-of-freedom parallelogram linkage with joint friction and backlash, and nonlinear dynamics. The mechatronic model of the robot with relatively accurate identified dynamic parameters is used in the human-robot interaction plant. Different musculoskeletal upper extremity, biomechanic, models are used to model human body motions while interacting with the rehabilitation robot model. Human-robot interaction models are recruited for model-in-loop simulations, thereby tuning the developed controllers in a structured resolution. The interaction models are optimized for real-time simulations. Thus, they are also used within the model-based control structures to provide biofeedback during a rehabilitation therapy. In robotic rehabilitation, because of physical interaction of the patient with a mechanical device, safety is a fundamental element in the design of a controller. Thus, impedance-based assistance is commonly used for robotic rehabilitation. One of our objectives is to achieve a reliable and real-time implementable controller. In our definition, a reliable controller is capable of handling variable exercises and admittance interactions. The controller should reduce therapist intervention and improve the quality of the rehabilitation. Hence, we develop advanced impedance-based assistance controllers for the rehabilitation robot. Overall, two types of impedance-based (i.e., hybrid force-impedance and optimal…

▼ As lesões músculo-esqueléticas relacionadas com o trabalho (LMERT) são cada vez mais um problema de saúde, pois as indústrias com os aumentos de produtividade, tornamse mais exigentes e criam mais pressão nos trabalhadores, sem muitas vezes ter em atenção as condições de trabalho. A ergonomia surge na perspetiva de melhoria destas condições e, no sentido de diminuir o risco de aparecimento das lesões musculares e potenciar o aumento da produtividade nas empresas. Contudo muitas indústrias vêm a ergonomia como meramente a aplicação da legislação sem ter em consideração todas as potencialidades desta área. A gradual preocupação com o risco de aparecimento das LMERT, conduz à apresentação de várias intervenções ergonómicas de forma a adaptar ou a redesenhar os postos de trabalho. Este estudo foi desenvolvido numa empresa de componentes eletrónicos para autorrádio. O objetivo deste estudo foi avaliar o risco do aparecimento de lesão músculoesquelética na manipulação manual de cargas em seis postos de trabalho na área da receção de materiais. A metodologia utilizada foi a aplicação do Questionário Nórdico Músculo-esquelético (QNM) para avaliar a perceção dos colaboradores em termos de sintomatologia aquando desempenham as várias tarefas nos postos. No sentido de avaliar o risco de manipulação manual de cargas e as posturas adotadas pelos trabalhadores nos seis postos, foram utilizados a equação de NIOSH’91 e o método de Rapid Upper Limb Assessment (RULA). Com base na análise dos métodos ergonómicos constatou-se que os seis postos de trabalhos necessitam ser alterados e os trabalhadores devem adotar posturas que mitiguem o aparecimento do risco. Após a realização deste estudo conclui-se que não existe um modelo de rotatividade nos postos da área da receção que contemple uma estratégia para a redução do aparecimento destas lesões. Os colaboradores, realmente, passam de um posto para outro porém desempenhando as mesmas tarefas com as mesmas posturas. Logo é perfeitamente plausível o aparecimento de lesões músculo-esqueléticas devido ao movimento repetido e à tensão muscular a que estão sujeitos. Contudo a conceção de um modelo de rotatividade ajuda a reduzir o aparecimento de lesões, englobando todas as variáveis associadas ao posto de trabalho. A rotatividade não se devia cingir só a uma área de trabalho, dado que na área em estudo as tarefas são muito similares nos vários postos, e assim sendo, existe uma sobrecarga muscular em alguns segmentos corporais, como a coluna cervical e lombar. A pertinência de incluir o grupo muscular nos modelos de rotatividade vai fazer com que os colaboradores não sobrecarreguem certas zonas corporais, assim a Ergonomista juntamente com um Terapeuta e o Médico de Medicina do trabalho podiam criar um modelo que permitisse aos colaboradores desempenharem várias tarefas com menor risco associado, beneficiando todos os envolvidos (administradores e trabalhadores).

▼ Compared with healthy controls, subjects with medial knee osteoarthritis walk using similar kinematics but greater activation of knee-spanning muscles, especially on the lateral side of the knee (furthest from centerline of the body). Although muscle forces generally compress the knee joint, it had been speculated that this specific activation pattern actually reduces compressive loads across the medial (closest to centerline) side of the knee where osteoarthritis is most common. It is not feasible to measure intra-articular contact forces in biological human knee joints. Therefore, a musculoskeletal simulation was developed to estimate the effect of elevated activation on knee contact forces. A generic musculoskeletal model was adapted to account for subject-specific frontal-plane alignment of the knee joint, and modified to isolate the medial and lateral components of the compressive knee contact load. The model’s predictions were validated using in vivo data obtained from a subject with an instrumented knee prosthesis. Subsequently, the model was used to demonstrate that elevated muscle activation, as found in osteoarthritis subjects, does not protect against harmful medial loads, but actually contribute to an increase in peak load shortly after heel-strike. Since osteoarthritis subjects did not appear to adopt a protective gait pattern, the second half of the dissertation was devoted to the evaluation of a clinical device that is known to reduce medial loads during gait: the knee unloader brace. To accomplish medial unloading, braces apply a frontal plane abduction moment to the knee which, if large enough, would pry open the medial contact surfaces. A novel method was developed to non-invasively compute the abduction moment applied by the brace to each subject’s leg using a mechanical stiffness calibration. The computed brace moment was incorporated into the musculoskeletal model in order to quantify relative contributions of muscle forces, inverse dynamic joint loads, and the applied brace load in reducing medial contact forces for treatment of medial knee osteoarthritis. The model revealed that kinematic, muscular, and inverse dynamic changes were dominated by the large applied brace moment. The medial unloading effect of knee braces could be enhanced by reducing external and muscle forces through gait modification.

▼ Variability in the musculoskeletal system is apparent at the human body level in terms of body height and shape. However, daily activities such as walking demonstrate stereotypical movement patterns across individuals. The literature suggests that although muscles produce stereotypical movements, at various levels of muscle variability exists. For example, whole muscles demonstrate differences in the portion of the force-length curve on which they act on. This has been demonstrated between different muscles as well as between the same muscles in different individuals. Evidence has also shown that sarcomere lengths differ along the length of muscle fibers. The First Dorsal Interosseous (FDI) muscle is the only muscle to abduct the second metacarpophalangeal joint and is therefore of interest to study its variability in light of its singular action. The purpose of the four studies in this dissertation was to investigate variability in the musculoskeletal system at various levels for the FDI muscle. Specifically, the purpose of the first study was to investigate how the output of a FDI musculoskeletal model changes with changes in model parameters. The purpose of the second study was to investigate how individual sarcomere lengths varied along single FDI muscle fibers. The purpose of the third study was to measure subject-specific FDI muscle model parameters in vivo. The purpose of the final study was to investigate, using magnetic resonance imaging, the arrangement of muscle fascicles within the FDI muscle. The studies showed that: 1. that accurate model output requires specimen-specific model parameters; 2. individual sarcomere lengths along muscle fibers exhibit long-range correlations, which has implications for determining the properties of the whole muscle from a sample of its fibers; 3. full characterization of a model of the FDI in vivo is feasible, using ultrasound imaging and a custom-made dynamometer; and 4. muscle fascicles demonstrate a complex architecture with some fascicles arranged in series. In study 1 model predicted joint moments were sensitive to the FDI model parameter set used; joint moments differed between parameter sets by up to 884.3%. In study 3 muscle model parameters were determined for three subjects, these parameters showed variability between the subjects for example the maximum velocity of fiber shortening ranged from 4.7 to 9.7 optimum fiber lengths per second. These findings demonstrate variability at multiple levels of muscle in the FDI muscle, which suggests that other muscles may also exhibit this variability which could be investigated using the methods presented in this dissertation.
