postconcussion is altered landing biomechanics. In the absence of concussion, aberrant lower extremity biomechanics are prospectively associated with increased risk for musculoskeletal injury. 10 , 11 For instance, greater external knee abduction moments 11 and smaller knee flexion angles 10 during landing

To effectively unload or augment the biological joint, knowledge of joint biomechanics is typically incorporated into the design or control of the exo. Generally speaking, the research field has a good comprehension of
Biomechanics: 40 Years On
Joseph Hamill, Kathleen M. Knutzen, and Timothy R. Derrick
As a subdiscipline within the field of kinesiology, biomechanics is still a relatively new area of study. With roots in physical education in the 1970s ( Nelson, 1973 ), biomechanics was initially concerned with the study of sports techniques. Subsequently, biomechanics has developed into an

rotation and moments ( McLean et al., 2005 ; Shin et al., 2011 ), and high vertical ground reaction force (VGRF; Hewett et al., 2005 ) have been considered biomechanical risk factors for an ACL injury during landing. Fundamentally, the primary aim of landing is to attenuate vertical, horizontal, and side
