Accessory thoracic muscles in human foetuses

Folia Morphologica
BACKGROUND: Typically, the anterior thoracic wall musculature is composed of the pectoralis major and pectoralis minor. Embryologically, these 2 muscles originate from a common pectoral muscle mass; therefore, disruption of the normal development and ...

Digital dissection of the model organism Xenopus laevis using contrast-enhanced computed tomography [PDF]

, 2017
The African clawed frog, Xenopus laevis, is one of the most widely used model organisms in biological research. However, the most recent anatomical description of X. laevis was produced nearly a century ago.

Robotic Control for Human–Robot Collaborative Assembly Based on Digital Human Model and Reinforcement Learning

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
This work presents a robotic control method for human–robot collaborative assembly based on a biomechanics‐constrained digital human model. Reinforcement learning is used to generate physiologically plausible human motion trajectories, which are integrated into a virtual environment for robot control learning.

Mind-muscle connection: effects of verbal instructions on muscle activity during bench press exercise

European Journal of Translational Myology, 2019
Different attentional foci may modify muscle activation during exercises. Our aim was to determine if it is possible to selectively activate the pectoralis major or triceps brachii muscles according to specific verbal instructions provided during the ...
