## Abstract The posterolateral structures of the knee consist of a complex anatomical architecture that includes several components with both static and dynamic functions. Injuries of the posterolateral structures occur frequently in conjunction with ruptures of the posterior cruciate ligament. To

## Abstract Cruciate ligament tensions were predicted for anteroposterior (AP) tibial translation at 20°, 30°, 80°, and 90° of knee flexion based on in vitro measurements from six cadaver knees. A three‐dimensional trigonometric equation was derived to calculate ligament tension as functions of AP
## Abstract The function of the anterior cruciate ligament was investigated for different conditions of kinematic constraint placed on the intact knee using a six‐degree‐of‐freedom robotic manipulator combined with a universal force‐moment sensor. To do this, the __in situ__ forces and force distri
