Attenuation of muscle spindle firing with artificially increased series compliance during stretch of relaxed muscle

E. M. Abbott, J. D. Stephens, S. N. Simha, L. Wood, P. Nardelli, T. C. Cope, L. H. Ting, G. S. Sawicki

This study investigates how increased tendon compliance affects muscle spindle firing during different stretch types and finds that firing rates are generally reduced but not fully explained by fascicle length and velocity.

History-dependent muscle resistance to stretch remains high after small, posturally-relevant pre-movements

B. C. Horslen, G. N. Milburn, K. P. Blum, S. N. Simha, K. S. Campbell, L. H. Ting

The study examines how muscle resistance to stretch is affected by prior movement history, finding that small, slow pre-movements preserve resistance, while larger, faster movements reduce it.

The Split-Belt Rimless Wheel

J. K. Butterfield, S. N. Simha, J. M. Donelan, S. H. Collins

This study demonstrates how energy can be extracted from a split-belt treadmill through intermittent leg contacts and asymmetry in leg angles, showing that humans do not maximize energy capture due to balance constraints.
