This paper develops a female-specific musculoskeletal model that outperforms male-based models in simulating female gait biomechanics, particularly in pelvic and hip-related metrics.

The paper examines whether energy costs of walking limited the evolution of a larger human birth canal by analyzing musculoskeletal models and locomotion efficiency.

This paper introduces a semi-automatic workflow to create personalised musculoskeletal models from MRI data, showing that MRI-based models produce higher joint contact forces with greater variation compared to generic models.

The paper develops a statistical model to estimate developmental canalization from longitudinal phenotypic data and applies it to human craniofacial morphology, finding strong canalization in craniofacial size and nasopharynx dimensions but not in frontal sinus size.
