Abstract
In this study an upper limb biomechanical model which includes strain-adjustable ligaments of the acromioclavicular joint was developed. The model including 7° of freedom is able to evaluate the movements of the shoulder, elbow and wrist. The ligaments strain can be adjusted in order to simulate different types of Rockwood acromioclavicular dislocation.
Movements recorded from three healthy subjects are used as preliminary assessment of the proposed model.
