Predicting Human Paralyzed Soleus Muscle Force Properties Using Three Mathematical Muscle Models: 194 Board #101 11:00 AM - 12:30 PM
Laura A. Frey Law; Richard K. Shields
Excerpt
Chronic spinal cord injury induces musculoskeletal deterioration that can prove to be life threatening. Preliminary work suggests electrically stimulated isometric muscle training may attenuate these detrimental adaptations. Mathematical muscle models would assist in developing the optimal activation strategy to generate various doses of muscle force. However, the accuracy of various muscle models (linear vs nonlinear) have not previously been compared in human paralyzed muscle.
