Feasibility of an alternative method to estimate glenohumeral joint center from videogrammetry measurements and CT/MRI of patients

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Philippe Müllhaupt, Alain Farron, Ehsan Sarshari, Matteo Mancuso

Videogrammetry is commonly used to record upper limb motions. However, it cannot track the glenohumeral joint center (GH). GH is required to reconstruct upper limb motions. Therefore, it is often estimated by separately measuring scapular motions using sca ...

Muscle co-contraction in an upper limb musculoskeletal model: EMG-assisted vs. standard load-sharing

Dominique Pioletti, Alexandre Terrier, Philippe Müllhaupt, Alain Farron, Ehsan Sarshari, Matteo Mancuso

Estimation of muscle forces in over-actuated musculoskeletal models involves optimal distributions of net joint moments among muscles by a standard load-sharing scheme (SLS). Given that co-contractions of antagonistic muscles are counterproductive in the n ...

Evaluation and robotic simulation of the glenohumeral joint

Matteo Mancuso

The shoulder is the joint with the largest range of motion in the human body. It is composed of three articulations, the glenohumeral articulation providing about two thirds of its mobility which is, also the most complex and fragile of the three. For this ...

A Robotic Glenohumeral Simulator for Investigating Prosthetic Implant Subluxation

Kamiar Aminian, Alexandre Terrier, Alain Farron, Arash Arami, Matteo Mancuso

Total shoulder arthroplasty (TSA) is an effective treatment for glenohumeral (GH) osteoarthritis. However, it still suffers from a substantial rate of mechanical failure, which may be related to cyclic off-center loading of the humeral head on the glenoid. ...

How the selection of muscles influences their synergies? A preliminary study using real data

Silvestro Micera, Andrea Crema, Elvira Pirondini, Martina Coscia, Matteo Mancuso

Muscle synergies have been proposed as building blocks that simplify the construction of movements, and as a method to study motor behavior. However, the pre-processing of the EMG signals and the factorization algorithm may impact on their extraction and m ...
