1. Foot-Ankle Joints Responses. Epidemiology, Biomechanics and Mathematical Modeling
Abstract : The purpose of this thesis is to acquire better knowledge of foot-ankle injuries because of their increasing importance in car crashes. Three approaches were used: epidemiology, biomechanics and mathematical modeling. READ MORE

2. On ankle fractures
Abstract : Ankle fractures range from simple avulsions to complex injuries and the treatment options are numerous. Sweden has no national guidelines regarding the management and treatment of ankle fractures, leaving these choices up to local tradition or individuals’ decisions. READ MORE

3. Studies of ankle fractures : classification, epidemiology, complications and results
Abstract : The ankle fracture is one of the most common fractures in adult patients and is a heterogeneous group of fractures. From the fully stable fracture on the most distal part of thefibula to severely unstable and even dislocated ankles. Patients with ankle fractures often report a good result after treatment, but a small group have persistent problems. READ MORE

4. Biomechanical consequences of gait impairment at the ankle and foot : Injury, malalignment, and co-contraction
Abstract : The human foot contributes significantly to the function of the whole lower extremity during standing and locomotion. Nevertheless, the foot and ankle often suffer injuries and are affected by many musculoskeletal and neurological pathologies. READ MORE

5. High-Density Electromyography-Based Methods for Joint Torque Prediction and Motor Unit Behavior Observation
Abstract : Electromyography (EMG) is a technique that measures the electrical activity of muscles. It reflects muscle activation and provides an interface to the central nervous system at the level of the muscle or individual motor units, which helps us understand the mechanisms of muscle force production, control, and coordination.
