Abstract: During standing, the joint reaction force increases with increasing knee flexion as the force vectors of quadriceps and patellar tendons become more parallel to the joint reaction force. It has been calculated, patella-femoral joint reaction forces is of 2-5 times body weight during activities of daily living; during squatting to 120 degree of knee flexion, the joint reaction force may be as high as 7-8 times body weight. During knee flexion, the patella makes a rolling or gliding motion along the femoral arti… Show more
