论文摘要
在这项研究中,我们通过使用三维有限元肌肉模型来重现这种压缩诱导的肌肉力量的降低。该模型使用了最低总能量的原理,并允许通过不同的应变能密度重新分布能量。这使我们能够确定应变能密度对肌肉发展的横向力的重要性。此外,我们能够研究外部工作如何通过横向压缩在肌肉上进行的工作会影响肌肉的内部工作和应变能量分布。
In this study we reproduced this compression-induced reduction in muscle force through the use of a three-dimensional finite element model of contracting muscle. The model used the principle of minimum total energy and allowed for the redistribution of energy through different strain energy-densities; this allowed us to determine the importance of the strain energy-densities to the transverse forces developed by the muscle. Furthermore, we were able to study how external work done on the muscle by transverse compression affects the internal work and strain-energy distribution of the muscle.
