Little is known about in vivo menisci loads and displacements in the knee during strenuous activities. A new method that combines high-speed kinematics measured with biplane dynamic Roentgen stereogrammetric analysis (DRSA) and a subject-specific finite element (FE) model for studying in vivo meniscal behavior is presented here. Further model calibration in a very controlled uniaxial low and high-rate compression loading condition is presented by comparing the model behavior against the measured high-accuracy menisci DRSA kinematics and direct tibio-femoral pressure measurement from a K-scan sensor. It is apparent that certain model aspects such as removing of the pressure sensor from the model can result in relatively large errors (14%) in contact parameters that are not reflected in the change of the measured meniscal kinematics. Changing mesh size to 1mm by 1mm elements increased the magnitude of all but one of the contact variables by up to 45%. This local validation using accurate localized patient-specific geometry and meniscal kinematics was needed to enhance model fidelity at the level of contact between menisci and cartilage.
