Recent research has focused on making numerical knee models subject-specific. However, to apply these models in a clinical setting, validation is essential. The aim of this study is to validate a subject-specific knee model by comparing experimental cadaver knee kinematics and ligament lengths to the model output obtained through a novel analysis method called force-dependent kinematics.
