Tensile response of the muscle-tendon complex using discrete element model [PDF]

, 2014
Tear of the muscle-tendon complex (MTC) is one of the main causes of sport injuries (De Labareyre et al. 2005). However, the mechanisms leading to such injury are still unclear (Uchiyama et al. 2011). Before modeling the tear

Acute Lateral Ankle Sprain Impairs Function and Strength Without Altering Muscle or Tendon Stiffness: A Controlled Observational Study

Orthopaedic Surgery
Introduction Acute lateral ankle sprain (LAS) frequently results in persistent functional limitations. Understanding changes in calf muscle and Achilles tendon (AT) stiffness after LAS may shed light on mechanisms underlying impaired function.
