Spinal loads and trunk muscles forces during level walking – A combined in vivo and in silico study on six subjects

During level walking, lumbar spine is subjected to cyclic movements and intricate loading of the spinal discs and trunk musculature. This study aimed to estimate the spinal loads (T12–S1) and trunk muscles forces during a complete gait cycle. Six men, 24–33years walk barefoot at self-selected speed...
