Figure Legend:
Schematic of the 'Desktop Knee Machine' for applying combinations of compressive, shear and torque forces across the knee at a range of flexion angles with respect to tibial and femoral axes. The components were constrained (C), unconstrained (U), or set (S) at the required angle (tibial slope or femoral flexion).

Figure Legend:
For each knee, the central diagram shows the contacts at all flexion angles for compression load only; the surrounding 4 diagrams show contacts for anterior femoral shear, posterior shear, internal torque, and external torque, as indicated by arrows. M indicates the Medial side of the knee as shown from a top view.
