Modelling motor units in 3d: influence on muscle contraction and joint force via a proof of concept simulation

HIGHLIGHTS

SUMMARY

    H. Saini et_al ignored this feature of muscle contraction (e_g Johansson et_al 2000; Fernandez et_al 2005; Blemker and Delp 2005; Röhrle and Pullan 2007; Wu et_al 2014; Röhrle et_al 2017; Weickenmeier et_al 2017; Chi et_al 2010; Péan et_al 2019)-most likely due to the representation of muscle fibres as a continuous vector field, which makes the grouping of fibres to define motor unit anatomy challenging. Currently, only multi-scale continuum-mechanical muscle models resolve motor unit anatomy by describing individual muscle fibres (e_g Heidlauf and Röhrle 2014; Schmid et_al 2019 . . .
