Blood flow‐restricted resistance exercise (BFRRE) has been shown to induce increases in
muscle size and strength, and continues to generate interest from both clinical and basic …

Compartmentalization of skeletal muscle by multiple motor nerve branches, named as
neuromuscular compartment (NMC), has been demonstrated in animals as well as humans …

To provide an effective and safe therapy to persons with neurological impairments, accurate
determination of their residual volitional ability is required. However, accurate measurement …

Objective: Reliable measurement of voluntary human effort is essential for effective and safe
interaction between the wearer and an assistive robot. Existing voluntary effort prediction …

Purpose Fatigue-related muscle activity in the superficial quadriceps femoris (QF) muscles
has been widely examined; however, there is no information on the activity of the deep …

It is not understood how the knee joint angle affects the relationship between
electromyography (EMG) and force of four individual quadriceps femoris (QF) muscles. The …

This paper aims to investigate the relationship between torque and muscle morphological
change, which is derived from ultrasound image sequence and termed as sonomyography …

One of the fundamental adaptations observed with resistance training (RT) is muscle
hypertrophy. Conventional and isokinetic machines provide different forms of mechanical …

Acute sleep restriction (SR) reduces strength through an unknown mechanism. Purpose: To
determine how SR affects quadriceps contractile function and recruitment. Methods …

Recently, a new recording technique for surface electromyography (EMG) of the deeper
muscle component of the quadriceps femoris muscle group, ie, vastus intermedius (VI) …
