Forces in Articulation: Calculations and Applications

This lecture covers the importance of calculating forces in joints, different types of forces in joints, and their applications in traumatology and implant design. It also explains the terminology related to body planes, joint motions, and the evaluation of forces in joints. The reduction and optimization methods for determining forces in joints are discussed, along with numerical applications and the use of Newton's laws. The lecture concludes with the benefits of understanding forces in joints for students.
