Modeling Skeletal Muscle Stress and Intramuscular Pressure: A Whole Muscle Active–Passive Approach
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Clinical treatments of skeletal muscle weakness are hindered by a lack of an approach to evaluate individual muscle force. Intramuscular pressure (IMP) has shown a correlation to muscle force in vivo, but patient to patient ...
Anisotropic Compressive Properties of Passive Porcine Muscle Tissue
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The body has approximately 434 muscles, which makes up 40–50% of the body by weight. Muscle is hierarchical in nature and organized in progressively larger units encased in connective tissue. Like many soft tissues, ...
