| Abstract: | This paper proposed a knee android model (Knee-AM) that can reproduce the internal-external rotation with screwhome movement (SHM) of the human knee. This rotation of the Knee-AM was realized by changing the number, the lengths and the fixing points of the nylon-cords of our previous Knee-AM. Moreover, when the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) was removed from the Knee-AM to imitate ligament injury, the SHM did not occur during knee extension. The results showed the ACL played an important role for the SHM. |
