Abstract
Knee simulation has been used as the primary tool in the estimation of knee flexion–extension levels for many years. This paper discusses the suitability of AdamsView simulation tool for estimating the flexion–extension angles in the knee joint, i.e. three versions namely: 3D reconstructed knee joint, standard artificial knee joint and artificial high flexion knee joint. The high flexion artificial knee joint model reaches a maximum flexion up to 120.2°. Whereas the standard knee Joint gets about 84.6°. However, the 3D reconstructed knee joint was capable of producing 134.4°. Thus the usage of the mechanical simulation tools in the medical applications has been proved once again.
