Comparison of two methods of determining patellofemoral joint stress during dynamic activities

Highlights • Patellofemoral joint stress calculations depend on muscle force estimates. • Combined inverse dynamics and static optimization displayed higher muscle forces. • Opposing muscle forces greatly influence patellofemoral joint stress measures.
