Document Summary
Modeling exercise 2: combined loading of the human anterior cruciate ligament: (10 pts) list all the parameters you will use in your model and provide references for any information you looked up. The parameters used in this model are the angle of twist (0. 349 radians) and the force (500 n), which are given in the problem. Other parameter where extracted from scholarly sources like the following: This table shows the area length and volume of the anterior cruciate ligament in humans of different ages. (noyes et al). The values chosen will be the young human. Another important parameter used was the torque, which was found to be 13. 5 n: (goetschius et al) Make sure the assumptions you choose are appropriate for your model. This is assumed so that the presence of one load does not affect the stress and strain of another. Also, it will help determine stresses at different points.
