FLEXOR

FLEXOR automates evaluation of musculo-articular stiffness (MAS) from biomechanical measurement data using mathematical methods and algorithmic curve analysis.


Key Features:

  • Automated Curve Adjustment: Applies mathematical methods to adjust data stream curves for accurate analysis of musculo-articular stiffness.
  • Peak and Valley Detection: Identifies curve peaks and valleys within biomechanical signals to support MAS parameter extraction.
  • Configurable Analysis Parameters: Allows adjustment of computational parameters controlling curve analysis and stiffness evaluation.

Scientific Applications:

  • Biomechanics Research: Quantifies musculo-articular stiffness to investigate joint and muscle mechanical properties.
  • Sports Science Analysis: Supports evaluation of biomechanical performance and injury risk in athletic studies.
  • Orthopedic Research: Assesses musculo-articular mechanical behavior in clinical and rehabilitation research.

Methodology:

FLEXOR analyzes biomechanical data streams using mathematical algorithms that adjust signal curves and detect peaks and valleys to compute musculo-articular stiffness parameters.
