Both the Hill and the Huxley muscle models had already been described by the time the
International Society of Biomechanics was founded 50 years ago, but had seen little use …

New technologies and the increasing integration of biological and engineering approaches
are revealing fundamental new insights into how animals actuate and control movement to …

As the complexity of obtaining irregular daily motion trajectory during upper limb
rehabilitation training, this paper proposes the bionic control method for the presented …

Much of the previous research on modeling and simulation of cycling has focused on seated
pedaling, modeling the crank load with an effective resistive torque and inertia. This study …

Muscular co-contraction of antagonistic muscle pairs is often observed in human movement,
but it is considered inefficient and it can currently not be predicted in simulations where …

Mammalian skeletal muscles are comprised of many motor units, each containing a group of
muscle fibres that have common contractile properties: these can be broadly categorized as …

Purpose A key determinant of muscle coordination and maximum power output during
cycling is pedaling cadence. During cycling, the neuromuscular system may select from …

The nervous system is faced with numerous strategies for recruiting a large number of motor
units within and among muscle synergists to produce and control body movement. This is …

Biological movement is an inherently dynamic process, characterized by large
spatiotemporal variations in force and mechanical energy. Molecular level interactions …

Background The mechanical characterization of skeletal muscle under high-rate loading
regimes is important for predicting traumatic injuries due to traffic accidents and contact …
