Knee and Ankle Rotation
The WorldSID also offers the possibility to measure the relative rotations between the upper legs and the lower legs and also between the lower legs and the feet. Therefore discrete elements are additionally used to measure these rotations. The location of the elements in the model is depicted in the following figure:
