Each component has a specific meaning:
Note: Interpret the hip abductor moment arm result against the thresholds and context described above.
Enter the femoral neck-shaft angle, pelvis width for the scenario you are assessing. Calculate hip abductor muscle moment arm based on femoral neck-shaft angle and pelvis width. Longer moment arm reduces abductor force requirement during single-leg stance. Use the hip abductor moment arm result to inform your calculation.
