Popis:	Inverse dynamics methods for muscle forces prediction are globally unable to predict antagonistic activity during a joint motion. This is due to a lack of physiological information describing how forces are shared between flexors and extensors. The aim of this study is the definition and the use of a new EMG-based cocontraction ratio in an inverse dynamics muscle forces prediction approach applied to the elbow flexion motion. Results show the relevance of the ratio. Comment: International Society of Biomechanics 2011 Congress (2011)
