Abstract
Numerical models of the knee joint are being increasingly used to study the internal mechanics of the joint, both in its intact condition and prosthetically resurfaced state. However, formulation of such models demands a precise knowledge of the complex three-dimensional shape of the articulating surfaces of the joint.
