Determining subject-specific lower-limb muscle architecture data for musculoskeletal models using diffusion tensor MRI.

Journal of Biomechanical Engineering, 2019
Accurate individualized muscle architecture data is crucial for generating subject-specific musculoskeletal models to investigate movement and dynamic muscle function.

Twitch characteristics in relation to muscle architecture and actual muscle length

Pfl�gers Archiv European Journal of Physiology, 1984
The length dependence of twitch time characteristics is quantified for several skeletal muscles of the rat: lateral gastrocnemius, medial gastrocnemius, plantaris, soleus and semimembranosus. It is shown that muscle architecture influences the length dependent behaviour of twitch time characteristics of muscles.

The Architecture of Leg Muscles

1990
Each of the four muscles shown in Figure 36.1 (a to d) consists of muscle fascicles (bundles of muscle fibers) connected at either end to tendons, but they show striking differences of architecture. Most authors would describe (a) and (c) as pen- nate, but (b) and (d) as parallel-fibered.

Impact of Inter- and Intramuscular Fat on Muscle Architecture and Capacity.

Critical reviews in biomedical engineering, 2019
There are factors that could affect both muscle architecture and muscle capacity, such as aging, chronic disease, and lifestyle. Few studies have investigated the relationship between muscle fat infiltration, muscle architecture, and muscle capacity ...

Muscle architecture and function in humans

Journal of Biomechanics, 1997
The present study focused on architectural factors which are considered to influence the linkage of muscle fiber and joint actions. By means of real-time ultrasonography we can observe clearly and noninvasively in vivo the movement of fascicle and aponeurosis in human muscle and measure directly the changes in pennation angle and length of fascicle ...

Architecture and function in the muscle sarcomere

Current Opinion in Structural Biology, 1997
Striated muscle sarcomeres in vertebrates comprise ordered arrays of actin and myosin filaments, organized by an elaborate protein scaffold. Recent innovative work in a number of laboratories has greatly improved our knowledge of these structures, their organization and their interactions.

Shoulder Muscle Architecture, Physiology, and Plasticity

2017
Muscles generate movement of the shoulder complex (glenohumeral, scapulothoracic, and acromioclavicular joints) and provide the stability needed to protect vital anatomic structures, in coordination with the rest of the neuromusculoskeletal system (i.e., tendons, ligaments, and the nervous system). One subset of muscles, the rotator cuff (supraspinatus,
