Alterations in Hip and Knee Joint Contact Force Waveforms and Orientation Induced by Gait Modifications: A Case Study

Introduction & Purpose Idiopathic torsional deformities of lower limb bones can affect a patient’s gait pattern and joint health, while their cause remains unidentified (Koller et al., 2026). Abnormal joint loadings and the progression of ...

Calibration of Microscopic Traffic Simulation in an Urban Environment Using GPS-Data

Accurate traffic models are of decisive importance for well-founded traffic engineering and represent the basic framework for comprehensive simulation studies as modelling of traffic demand. Using traffic count and speed measurements of roa...

Epigenetic alterations in mesenchymal stem cells by osteosarcoma-derived extracellular vesicles

Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are central to intercellular communication and play an important role in cancer progression and development. Osteosarcoma (OS) is an aggressive bone tumour, characterized by the presence of malignant mesenchymal...

Partial replacement of red and processed meat with legumes: a modelling study of the impact on nutrient intakes and nutrient adequacy on the population level

Abstract Objective: The shift towards plant-based diets with less meat and more legumes is a global target and requires an understanding of the consequences of dietary adequacy on the population level. Our aim was to model the impact of pa...
