'''Notes:'''
1. Sensor model is 5051, label is 5051-P1-16813DT1-1200.
1. A single pass equilibration at 6 bars was conducted.
1. A double pass equilibration was conducted at an additional pressure level of 3 bars, by using single pass 6 bars data. Software reordered the passes.
1. Both equilibrations were repeated due to a sensel equilibration issue at low pressure (3 bar). A snapshot of the equilibration measurements were taken at 3 bar. Files from this repetition (in particular for double pass) were used for calibration.

'''Data Location:'''
Data was received from the robotics testing facility and uploaded to in-house data management server (http://cobicore.lerner.ccf.org/midas; only accessible within Cleveland Clinic network). Zipped folders were stored in the folder Open Knee(s) --> Private --> oks006 --> !JointMechanics under relevant joint related folders.
Zipped folders were extracted and organized in the dissemination folder under Open Knee(s) --> Private --> oks006 --> !JointMechanics --> DISSEMINATION of the in-house data management server. DISSEMINATION folder was downloaded and disseminated to the public in the 'Downloads' section of the project website, https://simtk.org/home/openknee, under the package oks006.
Data storage and dissemination were accomplished based on the updated joint mechanics testing specifications, see [[http://wiki.simtk.org/openknee/Specifications/ExperimentationJointMechanics?action=recall&rev=101|Revision as of August 25, 2015]].
'''Protocol Deviations:'''
1. None.
'''Notes:'''
1. In tibiofemoral joint testing, during combined loading at 30 degrees flexion, the testing ended prematurely with abrupt loading. The test was repeated, in following the scheduled reproducibility testing was conducted and visually compared to first reproducibility testing. Any differences (<0.5 mm translation at peak loads) were attributed to specimen conditioning (and possibly creep).
1. In tibiofemoral joint testing, for combined loading at 90 degrees flexion, the knee fixture (holder angle) was rotated to accommodate range of motion of the robot. !SimVitro takes into account of these adjustments to provide desired loading scenarios.
1. In tibiofemoral joint testing, an optimized joint coordinate system was calculated from passive flexion data (0 to 90 degrees) under 50 N compression load (not 100 N). This was the case for all specimens so far and the specifications should reflect that.
1. In patellofemoral joint testing, optimized tibiofemoral joint coordinate system was always re-established from passive flexion data (0 to 60 degrees) under 50 N compression load. This was the case for all specimens so far and the specifications should detail this.
1. Patellofemoral joint testing delayed to update error catching feature of the new !SimVitro software in order to accommodate virtual force transducer utilized when the femur is mounted up. There were other software issues that needed to be fixed. These came as a result of the manual process of getting specific properties from the tibiofemoral state configuration file and placing in the state file for patellofemoral testing. As a follow up, we are creating a script to automating this conversion process. This script has been unit tested, but will be validated during the next test.
1. In patellofemoral joint testing, some conditions needed to be repeated as a result of load application issues and robot shut down. The last trial of these conditions should be used for future data analysis.

. Soft tissue dissection: ~2:30 PM - ~5:00 PM January 7, 2015

'''Data Location:'''
'''Protocol Deviations:'''
1. Soft tissue dissection started late. The team decided to postpone the cartilage dissection to the following day. As a result, bone and cartilage were kept in the fridge another night for dissection in the following morning. All ligament, tendon, menisci segments and secondary tissues were dissected and frozen.
'''Notes:'''
1. Jack Andrish provided a detailed dissections of the soft tissue structures of the knee, including various tendons and capsular components. Many of the secondary tissue types were identified, dissected, and stored in addition to semitendinosus, medial patellofemoral ligament, fat bursa, transverse ligament, etc.
1. Per Jack Andrish, overall assessment of the specimen was healthy relative to the age of the donor.
