Abstract: During voluntary contractions, limb muscle motor unit (MU) firing rates accelerate over a small force range and saturate in response to increasing contraction intensity. In comparison, facial muscles are cranially innervated, and some function without… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology"

DOI: 10.3389/fbioe.2022.913423

Abstract: Purpose: Monitoring the contractility of muscles assists the clinician in understanding how muscle functions as part of the kinetic system. This study investigated the effect of knee joint angles under different resistance on the stiffness… read more here.
