Muscle coordination retraining inspired by musculoskeletal simulations reduces knee contact force

Abstract Humans typically coordinate their muscles to meet movement objectives like minimizing energy expenditure. In the presence of pathology, new objectives gain importance, like reducing loading in an osteoarthritic joint, but people often do not change their muscle coordination patterns to meet...
