Quantifying Skeletal Muscle Properties in Cadaveric Test Specimens: Effects of Mechanical Loading, Postmortem Time, and Freezer Storage
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Investigators currently lack the data necessary to define the state of skeletal muscle properties within cadaveric specimens. The purpose of this study is to define the temporal changes in the ...
The Influence of Strain Rate on the Passive and Stimulated Engineering Stress–Large Strain Behavior of the Rabbit Tibialis Anterior Muscle
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The passive and stimulated engineering stress–large strain mechanical properties of skeletal muscle were measured at the midbelly of the rabbit tibialis anterior. The purpose of these experiments ...
Axial Strain Measurements in Skeletal Muscle at Various Strain Rates
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: A noncontact optical system using high speed image analysis to measure local tissue deformations and axial strains along skeletal muscle is described. The spatial resolution of the system was ...
