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

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 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.
