... ) of the spine decreases as the exposure acceleration increases, effects of varying the vibration profile, including peak-to-peak displacement (s ptp ), root-mean-squared acceleration (a rms ), and frequency (f), on pain onset are not known. An established in vivo rat model of WBV was used to characterize...

... of the vicious cycle hypothesis as variation in compressive and tensile loading influences spinal growth and asymmetry. An in vivo study using a goat animal model was implemented to investigate asymmetric growth between the instrumented and noninstrumented side of the spine [ 13 ], which leads to progression...

... for quantifying elbow kinematics and to demonstrate its in vivo application. Method of Approach: The accuracy of a model-based tracking technique for quantifying elbow kinematics was determined in an in vitro experiment. Biplane X-ray images of a cadaveric elbow were acquired as it was manually moved through...

... or gender. We also sought to determine if a best-fit pivot point (PvP) describes the radio-capitate joint as a ball-and-socket articulation. By using an in vivo markerless bone registration technique applied to computed tomography scans of 26 male and 28 female wrists, we applied scaling derived from...
