Intraoperative Measurement and Biomechanical Modeling of the Flexor Carpi Ulnaris-to-Extensor Carpi Radialis Longus Tendon Transfer
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Sarcomere length was measured intraoperatively in five patients undergoing tendon transfer of the flexor carpi ulnaris (FCU) to the extensor carpi radialis longus (ECRL) for radial nerve palsy. ...
Relationship Between Achilles Tendon Mechanical Properties and Gastrocnemius Muscle Function
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Strain was measured along the length of frog (Rana pipiens) gastrocnemius muscle-tendon units (MTU). Maximum muscle tension (P0 ) was measured, and the MTU was passively loaded to P0 . Strain ...
A Nonlinear Model of Passive Muscle Viscosity
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The material properties of passive skeletal muscle are critical to proper function and are frequently a target for therapeutic and interventional strategies. Investigations into the passive ...
