This study uses Hill-type muscle modeling to predict optimal parameters for maximizing average mechanical power output during stretch-shortening cycles in rat medial gastrocnemius muscle.

This study shows that different cross-bridge rate parameters in Huxley-type muscle models can produce similar mechanical behavior but vary in metabolic predictions.

This study uses a Hill-type muscle-tendon-complex model to determine how knee joint movement affects maximal average mechanical power output of the quadriceps femoris muscle, finding strong interactions between cycle frequency and knee joint excursion.

This study quantifies how ankle immobility affects sprint cycling performance, showing reduced power output with AFOs but compensatory increases in hip joint power.

This study shows that linear and angular momentum are simultaneously controlled in human walking, explaining correlations between ground reaction forces and center of mass/pressure positions.

This study evaluates how well simulations of human gait predict movement mechanics and metabolic power under various conditions, finding underestimation in metabolic power and identifying potential model errors.

The paper evaluates and improves methods for estimating muscle properties using simulations and experiments on rat muscles, showing that an improved method provides more accurate parameter estimates.

The paper shows that mechanical efficiency during sub-maximal cycling is underestimated because negative muscular power is not accounted for, leading to significant corrections in efficiency estimates.
