Scientific Reports, 2020 Jaw-muscle architecture is a key determinant of jaw movements and bite force. While static length-force and force-velocity relationships are well documented in mammals, architecture dynamics of the chewing muscles and their impact on muscle performance ...

Journal of Functional Morphology and Kinesiology, 2018 The rate of force development (RFD) is vital for power athletes. Lean body mass (LBM) is considered to be an essential contributor to RFD, nevertheless high RFD may be achieved by athletes with either high or low LBM. The aim of the study was to describe

Plasticity of Muscle Architecture After Supraspinatus Tears [PDF]
Journal of Orthopaedic & Sports Physical Therapy, 2010 Study Design Controlled laboratory study. Objectives To measure the architectural properties of rat supraspinatus muscle after a complete detachment of its distal tendon. Methods Supraspinatus muscles were released from the left humerus of 29 Sprague-Dawley rats (mass, 400–450 g), and the animals were returned to cage activity for 2 weeks (n = 12), 4 ...

Spatiotemporal symmetries in the disynaptic canal-neck projection [PDF]
, 2007 The vestibular system in almost all vertebrates, and in particular in humans, controls balance by employing a set of six semicircular canals, three in each inner ear, to detect angular accelerations of the head in three mutually orthogonal coordinate ...

Muscle Architecture and its Relationship to Muscle Circulation
International Journal of Sport and Health Science, 2005 Muscle contraction mechanically changes vessel geometry and consequently muscle circulation. Lengthening of muscle fiber straightens capillary tortuosity and further increase in muscle fiber length reduces blood flow by extending the capillary while reducing its diameter.

Effects of Muscle Architecture on Eccentric Exercise Induced Muscle Damage Responses
Journal of Sports Science and Medicine, 2021 There is a need to investigate the role of muscle architecture on muscle damage responses induced by exercise. The aim of this study was to determine the effect of muscle architecture and muscle length on eccentric exercise-induced muscle damage responses.
