In this paper patello-femoral and tibia-femoral contact forces during kicking type of activity is presented by means of a dynamic model of the knee joint which includes tibio-femoral and patello-femoral articulations, and the major ligaments of the joint. The model shows that the patella can be subjected to very large transient patello-femoral contact forces during a strenuous lower limb activity such as kicking even under conditions of small knee-flexion angles.
