Simulation of the Stabilizing Mechanism of Distal Radioulnar Joint during Pronation and Supination

The objective of this study was to simulate the movements of the bones involved in human forearm rotation. We developed a biomechanical arm model comprising bone, muscle, and ligament components. Computed tomography (CT) scans of a human arm were used to determine the morphology of the humerus, ulna...
