DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2018.04.036
Abstract: To confirm the existence of epimuscular myofascial force transmission in humans, this study examined if manipulating joint angle to stretch the muscle can alter the shear modulus of a resting adjacent muscle, and whether there… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.jbiomech.2018.07.032
Abstract: Tendons transmit contractile muscular force to bone to produce movement, and it is believed cells can generate endogenous forces on the extracellular matrix to maintain tissue homeostasis. However, little is known about the direct mechanical… read more here.
