  • Abstract
    A two-segment kinetic model of the foot and ankle was developed to investigate behavior of the ankle joint during gait. The model was built to work in synchrony with the existing four-segment kinematic model, and was used to evaluate a population with posterior tibial tendon insufficiency.
