This study presents a method to determine stiffness of the human ankle in internal–external rotation, inversion–eversion, and plantarflexion–dorsiflexion during an in vivo , single-legged, external ...

and muscle force during slow, high force contractions. We hypothesize that gearing in any given contraction is determined by the dynamic interaction of fiber-generated forces, fluid force transmission ...
Purpose To compare the ankle plantar-flexor muscle-tendon mechanical behaviour during barefoot and shod forefoot running. Methods Thirteen highly trained forefoot runners performed five overground ...
characteristics (e.g. hysteresis, elastic strain energy reutilization) would be enhanced with such stiffness increases during walking, and suspected that such improvements would alter dynamic tendon strain ...
contribute to modify BPV in a complex manner. However, determining the relative contribution to BPV by large artery stiffness and fluctuations in stroke volume is made difficult by the fact that in vivo active ...
-tendon dynamics are tuned to optimize movement economy. We perform significant mechanical work during push-off–predominantly via muscle-tendon units (MTU) spanning the ankle –to propel the body forward ...
