Title: Musculoskeletal modelling and injury biomechanics: challenges and solutions
Abstract:
The analysis and understanding of the mechanisms related to specific injuries is a key step in injury prevention research. In fact, such a knowledge allows to effectively inform the design of real world interventions or changes in clinical or sport practice. In the past decades, experimental and computational approaches were often used individually to investigate the external and internal loads experienced at different tissue levels.
The proposed integrative approach provides a novel and more thorough insight into how external loading conditions, muscular activity and body posture affect the internal stresses acting on the cervical spine structures. Dario will provide examples of how such approach has been used to elucidate injury factors related to rugby and show how this framework will be used for future research in the area of impact-related injuries in sports.
