Résumé / Abstract
Passive joint moments (PM) have been estimated in-vivo in several studies by measuring the applied forces and moments while manipulating the joint [1,2]. Nevertheless, in most of the studies, simplified approaches are used to calculate these PM. The most common simplification is to considerthat the axes of the dynamometerare aligned with those of the manipulated segment [1,2]. This way, no dynamometer's kinematics measurements is required.
