Sometimes you need a ‘fresh eye’ on things. That’s what the team at Imperial College’s Musculoskeletal Mechanics Group realised as they prepared their internally developed software for a public release.

The Imperial College Lower Limb Model (ICLLM) is a C++ and MATLAB-based musculoskeletal modelling software package that is used as part of the Medical Engineering Solutions in Osteoarthritis Centre of Excellence. It allows the prediction of subject-specific muscle and joint forces at the hip, knee and ankle by using motion data gathered from gait analysis.
