Orthopaedic Biomechanics is a specialized branch of biomechanics that focuses on the study of the mechanical aspects of the musculoskeletal system. It involves analyzing the structure and function of bones, joints, ligaments, tendons, and muscles to understand how they interact during various movements and activities. Researchers in orthopaedic biomechanics employ advanced technologies such as motion capture, force plates, and computational modeling to quantify and analyze biomechanical parameters. This field plays a crucial role in improving the design and effectiveness of orthopaedic implants, prosthetics, and rehabilitation techniques. It aids in the development of surgical procedures by providing insights into the forces and stresses acting on musculoskeletal structures. Orthopaedic biomechanics also contributes to injury prevention strategies, particularly in sports and physical activities. Orthopaedic surgeons and engineers collaborate in this field to optimize treatment plans, design patient-specific implants, and enhance the understanding of how biomechanical factors influence the success of orthopaedic interventions. The findings from orthopaedic biomechanics research contribute to advancements in orthopaedic surgery, rehabilitation protocols, and the overall improvement of patient outcomes in musculoskeletal care.
