... runs from a 400-by-26 Latin-hypercube (LH) design over the model input ranges to conduct 400 evaluations of the multibody dynamics (MBD) model. For each vector of ligament parameters, the kinematics and ACL forces (i.e., model outputs) were computed using the MBD model. These 400 model simulations...

... 2020 multibody dynamics middle ear finite element model model reduction model correlation In these studies, it has been assumed that the stapes' movement is restricted to the lateral–medial direction (perpendicular to the stapes footplate), also known as “piston-like” motion. However...

...Jason P. Halloran; Ahmet Erdemir; Antonie J. van den Bogert Finite element (FE) modeling and multibody dynamics have traditionally been applied separately to the domains of tissue mechanics and musculoskeletal movements, respectively. Simultaneous simulation of both domains is needed when...
