[Rheological model of muscle tissue in a state of constant activation]
Biofizika
|January 1, 1984
Abstract:
For cylindric sample of muscle tissue in the state of constant activation a constitutive equation was found, which permits to reproduce in first approximation the frequency relationships of muscle dynamic rigidity and phase shift between tension and deformation. The meaning of such equation seems to involve a description of the muscle contractile element via its macroscopic characteristics without looking into its inner structure.
