An illusion of eccentricity [PDF]
The illusion investigated here is that two concentric arcs, drawn in different (though possibly overlapping) circular sectors and having the same angular extent, appear to be eccentric. Three possible explanations of the illusion are tested. The first hypothesis is that concentricity judgments are made by elongating the arcs to see if they intersect ...

A New Paradigm for Muscle Contraction
For the past 60 years, muscle contraction had been thought to be governed exclusively by the contractile filaments, actin and myosin. This thinking explained most observations for concentric and isometric, but not for eccentric muscle contractions.

Influence of 4 weeks of downhill running on calcium sensitivity of rat single muscle fibers
Improved Ca2+ sensitivity has been suggested as a mechanism behind enhancements in muscle mechanical function following eccentric training. However, little is known regarding the effects of eccentric training on single muscle fiber Ca2+ sensitivity ...
