Abstract
A board certified orthopedic surgeon confirmed observed rupture patterns were representative of clinical cases. Peak strains were consistent with literature. The novel mechanical impact simulator will allow researchers to assess clinically relevant patterns of rupture and the data generated will inform clinician decisions. This novel machine presents the ability to assess healthy specimens as well as differences in the function of deficient and reconstructed knees.
