Non‐uniform displacement and strain between the soleus and gastrocnemius subtendons of rat Achilles tendon Open
Achilles tendon ( AT ) comprises of 3 subtendons arising from the soleus ( SOL ) and the lateral ( LG ) and medial ( MG ) heads of the gastrocnemius muscle. While recent human studies show differential displacement within AT , these displa…

Effects of epimuscular myofascial force transmission on sarcomere length of passive muscles in the rat hindlimb Open
Results from imaging studies and finite element models suggest epimuscular myofascial effects on sarcomere lengths in series within muscle fibers. However, experimental evidence is lacking. We evaluated epimuscular myofascial effects on (1…

No functionally relevant mechanical effects of epimuscular myofascial connections between rat ankle plantar flexors Open
Triceps surae muscles are mechanically connected by the shared Achilles tendon and by epimuscular myofascial connections. We aimed to assess effects of proximal lengthening of gastrocnemius (GA) and plantaris muscles, imposed by changes in…
