Pennation Angle and Fascicle Length of Human Skeletal Muscles to Predict the Strength of an Individual Muscle Using Real-Time Ultrasonography: A Review of Literature [PDF]

, 2016
Introduction: Muscle fascicle length and pennation angle are two muscle structural parameters which can be non-invasively measured using methods like ultrasonography. The aim of the present literature review was to introduce fascicle length and pennation

Comparative Morphology and Mechanics of Aquatic and Terrestrial Feeding Salamanders

Journal of Morphology, Volume 287, Issue 9, September 2026.
Jaw muscle size, bite force, and skull strength are driven by multiple factors, not just the difference between the two habitats. Necturus produces higher bite forces than Salamandra, but the stress distribution is less even in Necturus, suggesting Salamandra's skull shape is better adapated to resist feeding loads.

Reliability of Gastrocnemius Pennation Angle Using Ultrasound with 15 Degree Adduction and Abduction in Standing Position [PDF]

, 2016
A pennate muscle has fascicles that attach obliquely to its tendon. In parallel, more fascicles can be aligned allowing for greater production of force.

MR Imaging‐Based Biomarkers for Strength Prediction: A Statistical Shape and Architecture Modeling of Quadriceps Muscles

Journal of Magnetic Resonance Imaging, Volume 64, Issue 3, Page 685-698, September 2026.
ABSTRACT Background Muscle mass decline, associated with strength decline, is a hallmark of aging. Yet, strength decline greatly exceeds mass decline. This indicates that aspects of muscle quality and architecture—not reflected by mass—also influence force generating capacity.

Isometric training at longer muscle–tendon complex lengths: A potential countermeasure to impaired neuro‐muscle–tendon function during space travel

Experimental Physiology, Volume 111, Issue 9, Page 4041-4053, 1 September 2026.
Abstract Manned space exploration to distant destinations, including Mars, continues to be an aspiration of humankind. Space travel does, however, present many challenges to the body, amongst which adaptation to microgravity is perhaps the largest. For instance, both short and long manned spaceflight missions have shown substantial deleterious effects ...
