Joint tissue mechanics (e.g., stress and strain) are believed to have a major involvement in the onset and progression of musculoskeletal disorders, e.g., knee osteoarthritis (KOA). Accordingly, considerable efforts have been made to develop musculoskeletal finite element (MS-FE) models to estimate highly-detailed tissue mechanics that predict cartilage degeneration. However, creating such models is time-consuming and requires advanced expertise. This limits these complex, yet promising MS-FE models to research applications with few participants and making the models impractical for clinical assessments. Also, these previously developed MS-FE models are not assessed for any activities other than the gait. This study introduces and validates a semi-automated rapid state-of-the-art MS-FE modeling and simulation toolbox incorporating an electromyography (EMG) assisted MS model and a muscle-force driven FE model of the knee with fibril-reinforced poro(visco)elastic cartilages and menisci. To showcase the usability of the pipeline, we estimated joint- and tissue-level knee mechanics in 15 KOA individuals performing different daily activities. The pipeline was validated by comparing the estimated muscle activations and joint mechanics to existing experimental data. Also, to examine the importance of EMG-assisted MS analyses, results were compared against outputs from the same FE models but driven by static-optimization-based MS models. The EMG-assisted MS-FE pipeline bore a closer resemblance to experiments, compared to the static-optimization-based MS-FE pipeline. More importantly, the developed pipeline showed great potentials as a rapid MS-FE analysis toolbox to investigate multiscale knee mechanics during different activities of individuals with KOA.
