The effect of stretching on nerve excitability [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Movement Science 86 (2022) 103000, 2022
Nerves are frequently stretched during movement. We investigate here the effect of stretch on nerve excitability within the framework of the soliton theory. This thermodynamic theory for nerve pulse propagation relies on the presence of a melting transition in the nerve membrane.
