Osteological Correlates of Fascicle Length and Gape in Carnivora

The FASEB Journal, 2022
Previously, our lab has studied the scaling and dietary correlates of masticatory muscle fiber architecture separately in felids, musteloids, canids, and ursids as well as across the carnivoran order as a whole. In some of these lineages, fascicle lengths (FLs; a correlate of gape) scale with relative diet size, while across the ...

Measurement of Skeletal Muscle Fascicle Length

2021
Muscle fascicle length (FL) is also an important quantitative indicator of skeletal muscle dynamics, and its changes directly reflect muscle activity. The calculation methods for muscle fiber length include the use of extended field-of-view ultrasonography (EFOV US) technology and optical flow tracking methods, etc.

Gastrocnemius Fascicle Length Changes with Two-Joint Passive Movements

Journal of Applied Biomechanics, 2008
Predicting muscle fascicle length changes during passive movements may lead to a better understanding of muscle function. The purpose of this study was to experimentally compare fascicle length changes in the gastrocnemius during two-joint passive movements with a previously derived kinematic model based on anatomical measures from a cadaver. The ratio

Forefoot running requires shorter gastrocnemius fascicle length than rearfoot running

Journal of Sports Sciences, 2019
This study aimed to investigate the influence of foot strike patterns on the behaviour of the triceps surae muscle-tendon unit, including the Achilles tendon whose length nearly corresponds to force of the triceps surae, and the medial gastrocnemius muscle (MG) during running.

Muscle enlargement in sumo wrestlers includes increased muscle fascicle length

European Journal of Applied Physiology, 2000
Skeletal muscle architecture was measured in 28 college sumo wrestlers (Sumo) and 30 control subjects. Pennation angle (PAN) and muscle thickness (MTH) of the triceps long head (TL), vastus lateralis (VL) and gastrocnemius medialis (MG) and lateralis (LG) muscles were measured by B-mode ultrasonography, and fascicle length (FAL) was estimated.

Estimation of cat medial gastrocnemius fascicle lengths during dynamic contractions

Journal of Biomechanics, 2002
In typical muscle models, it is often assumed that the contractile element (fascicle) length depends exclusively on the instantaneous muscle-tendon length and the instantaneous muscle force. In order to test whether the instantaneous fascicle length during dynamic contractions can be predicted from muscle-tendon length and force, fascicle lengths ...

Vastus Lateralis Fascicle Length Changes During Stair Ascent and Descent

Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2008
Experimental descriptive laboratory study.To describe the change in fascicle length of the human vastus lateralis (VL) muscle during the stance phase of stair ascent and descent.Muscle fascicle length changes during lower limb functional activities, such as walking and jumping, do not always coincide with joint angle changes.Thirty-three healthy ...
