CAMS-Knee OpenSim Workshop
CAMS-Knee OpenSim Workshop – 4-7 February 2020
“State-of-the-art measurement and simulation techniques for investigating functional knee joint mechanics”
Early bird registration deadline – 15 November 2019
Georg-Hohmann-Plakette 2019
The German Society for Orthopedics and Orthopedic Surgery (DGOOC) awarded the Georg-Hohmann-Plakette to Prof. Dr.-Ing. Georg Bergmann, for his outstanding contributions to the development of German orthopedics.

New Software available for determining typical patterns from strongly varying signals
The new software for calculating of average signal from several varying, time dependent signals, using a dynamic time warping procedure (averDTW) is online availible.
There are two versions of the algorithm: Visual Basic (2015) and MatLab (2016b) script.

135 new Datasamples – Loading of the hip and knee joints during whole body vibration training
Selected data samples of the in vivo measured knee and hip joint loads during whole body vibration training are available at the OrthoLoad Database.
The data samples were used in the new publication Loading of the hip and knee joints during whole body vibration training.

Data Samples
121 new data samples are now available at the OrthoLoad Database.
121 new data samples of in vivo measured friction in the hip joint are are now available at the OrthoLoad Database.
The data samples were used in the new publication Physical Activities That Cause High Friction Moments at the Cup in Hip Implants.

Selected data samples of the in vivo measured hip joint loads are available at the OrthoLoad Database.
In the diagrams and tables the moments are given in the dimension %BWm (percent of body weight times meter). To get the value of the highest moment Mmax (1) in the dimension Nm instead, multiply the value of Mmax in %BW*m (2) with 1% of the BW in N (3). In the example, the maximum moment is Mmax = 1.34 * 8.58 Nm = 11.5 Nm.
