| description | The human wrist joint is an elegant mechanism. The wrist allows the positioning and orienting of the hand to the forearm. The computational modeling of the human hand, especially of the wrist joint, can reveal important information about biomechanical mechanisms and provide the basis for its dysfunction and pathologies. For instance, this could be used for therapy planning in total wrist arthroplasty (TWA). In this study, different optimization methods and sensitivity analyses of anatomical parameters for musculoskeletal modeling were presented. Optimization includes finding the best available value of an objective function, including a variety of different types of objective functions. In the simplest case, optimization consists of maximizing or minimizing a function by systematically choosing input values from within an allowed set and computing the value of the function. Optimization techniques are used in many facets, such as the model building of joints or joint systems such as the wrist. The purpose of this study is to show the variability and influence of the included information for modeling, investigating the biomechanical function and load situation of the joint in representative scenarios. These possibilities to take them into account by an optimization and seem essential for the application of computational modeling to joint pathologies. |
