Muscle Excitation and Contraction
1986In the most primitive muscle cells, the myocytes of sponges, contractile phenomena are entirely regulated at a cellular level. In contrast, in all higher phyla, motility is more or less under the control of the nervous system which communicates with muscle cells at the neuromuscular junction. Think, for example, of a frog jumping into a pond.

Contraction Dynamics in Antagonist Muscles
Journal of Theoretical Biology, 1994By taking into account the torque/angle and the torque/angular speed relationships of antagonist muscles acting across a joint it is possible to predict the contraction dynamics when they are simultaneously activated at a constant level. The simulation is displayed in a "phase-plane" where trajectories for each starting condition (angle--abscissa ...

Publisher Summary This chapter discusses the theory of muscle contraction. According the theory of contraction— the sliding filament theory—contraction is the result of the myofilaments sliding over one another, that is, it is a consequence of increased interdigitation of the myofilaments. In a muscle at its relaxed resting length, about two-thirds of
