Immediate Action Items:

• Ahmet
  • Disseminate joint mechanics testing data for oks003, oks004, oks007, and oks008.
  • Prepare flowcharts to describe data flow for pre-processing of joint kinematics/kinetics data.
  • Follow up with scheduling of Advisory Board meeting.
  • Follow up with Carl Winalski about MRI grading of Open Knee(s).
• Craig
  • Explore hexahedral meshing workflows in Salome for STL surfaces.
  • Check simulation parameters for models of Open Knee(s) - Generation 1 when using springs.
  • Conduct simulations for models of Open Knee(s) - Generation 1 when using springs with 45 degrees flexion in 1 s and 90 degrees flexion in 2 s.
  • Prepare detailed list of paragraphs and figures and tables for imaging data manuscript.
• Snehal
  • Check other sources for specimen acquisition.
  • Order a redundant lens same as the one used in mechanical testing system.
  • Work on Python scripting to process tissue testing data.
  • Review wiki pages related to tissue testing.
• Robb
  • Perform and upload left knee coordinate system versions for oks003, of combined loading data for tibiofemoral joint at 90 degree flexion.
  • Perform and upload post-experiment calibration file for contact pressure data of oks007.
  • Prepare detailed list of paragraphs and figures and tables for imaging data manuscript.
• Tara
  • Upload oks008 tibiofemoral joint testing data to data management site.
  • Complete detailed list of paragraphs and figures and tables for imaging data manuscript.

Ongoing Action Items:

• Craig
  • Anatomical imaging manuscript.
  • Large-scale analysis of simulation parameters for convergence.
• Snehal
  • Pivot shift manuscript.

  • Cruciate ligament modeling & simulation.

• Robb
  • Patellofemoral joint experimentation manuscript.
• Tara
  • Tibiofemoral joint experimentation manuscript.

Notes:

1. Discuss immediate action items from the last meeting.
   • Ahmet tried to disseminate joint mechanics data for oks003 and oks008. He identified a couple folders in the tibiofemoral joint testing data of oks003 where the measurements were not processed and converted to the physical left knee coordinate systems. Robb will fix this issue. When Ahmet tried to work on the dissemination of oks008, he realized that the zip file for the tibiofemoral joint testing, which was previously uploaded to the in house data management system, was empty. Tara will upload raw tibiofemoral joint testing data for oks003 again for further organization and dissemination. Ahmet has not worked on oks004 yet. oks007 still misses a post-experiment calibration of pressure sensor to complete the patellofemoral joint testing data. Robb will provide this.
   • Ahmet still has to prepare flowcharts to describe data flow for pre-processing of joint kinematics/kinetics data.
   • Ahmet contacted the Advisory Board to schedule a meeting during November 2015. He will follow up.
