This lecture covers the determination of forces in joints and their immediate benefits, the strong dependency of forces on body configuration, the mechanical load resistance in hip implants, the calculation of forces in different joints, the 3D evaluation of knee kinematics, the use of Euler angles for spatial orientation, and the clinical interpretation of rotation angles. It also discusses the measurement of knee kinematics, the evaluation of sportive performance through kinematics analysis, the use of knee kinematics in biomechanical studies, and the comparison between normal and abnormal gait through joint angles. The lecture emphasizes the importance of understanding forces in articulation for applications in traumatology and implant design.
