Analysis of muscles behaviour : The computational model of muscle. -Part I
PublicationW artykule zaproponowano model obliczeniowy mięśnia szkieletowego, który potraktowano jako strukturę o złożonych i zróżnicowanych właściwościach mechanicznych. Szczegółowo opisano metodę identyfikacji tych właściwości. Ponadto określono sposób przeprowadzenia weryfikacji ilościowej i jakościowej zaproponowanego modelu. Za pomocą takiego obliczeniowego modelu mięśnia można łatwo określać siły w mięśniach, które należą do zespołu...

Mathematical model of pennate muscle
PublicationThe purpose of this study is to create a new mathematical model of pennate striated skeletal muscle. This new model describes behaviour of isolated flat pennate muscle in two dimensions (2D) by taking into account that rheological properties of muscle fibres depend on their planar arrangement. A new mathematical model is implemented in two types: 1) numerical model of unipennate muscle (unipennate model); 2) numerical model of...

Chosen aspects of muscle biomechanics
PublicationConsidering a striated skeletal muscle as a different properties mechanical system, one can understand series of important phenomena happening in a real muscle phenomenon of muscle: 1) force delivery to skeletal apparatus through tendons; 2) changing of exerted muscle belly mass distribution with regards to skeletal apparatus; 3) beginning drop of muscle force. A disregard of first phenomenon causes an impossibility to explain...

Application of muscle model to the musculoskeletal modeling
PublicationThe purpose of this paper is to investigate new fusiform muscle models. Each of these models treats a muscle as a system composedof parts characterized by different mechanical properties. These models explain the influence of differences in the stiffness of lateral parts and the degree of muscle model discretization. Each muscle model is described by a system of differential equations and a single integro-differential equation....

Modelling and simulation of striated muscle and groups of muscles in arm-forearm system 2D
PublicationModel mięśnia szkieletowego poprzecznie prążkowanego został przedstawiony jako szeregowe połączenie aktywnych i pasywnych odcinków reologicznych. Zasymulowane zostały: skurcze pojedyncze, niecałkowity skurcz tężcowy, całkowity skurcz tężcowy. Model zespołu mięśni w układzie ramię-przedramię opisu-je zmianę kąta obrotu przedramienia względem nieruchomego ramienia. Pobudzając zginacze i prostowniki był zasymulowany obrót przedramienia.

Enhancing rheological muscle models with stochastic processes
PublicationPurpose: Biological musculoskeletal systems operate under variable conditions. Muscle stiffness, activation signals, and loads change during each movement. The presence of noise and different harmonic components in force production significantly influences the behaviour of the muscular system. Therefore, it is essential to consider these factors in numerical simulations. Methods: This study aims to develop a rheological mathematical...

A two dimensional approach for modelling of pennate muscle behaviour
PublicationThe purpose of this study was to elaborate a two-dimensional approach for unipennate and bipennate striated skeletal muscle modelling. Behavior of chosen flat pennate muscle is modelled as a rheological system composed of serially linked passive and active fragments having different mechanical properties. Each fragment is composed of three elements: mass element, elastic element and viscous element. Each active fragment furthermore...

A Biofeedback System that Uses the Game to Study Electrical Muscle Activity
PublicationThe aim of this project was to design a system that will allow performing repetitive muscle exercises using a biofeedback device. It is supposed to enhance the motivation and attractiveness of the performed tasks thanks to an interactive game developed for mobile devices with the Android operating system. The built-in calibration mechanisms enable the users to play a game that is independent of their abilities which evens out the...

Perceptual and Motor Effects of Muscle Co-activation in a Force Production Task
PublicationWe tested several predictions of the theory of motor control with spatial referent coordinates related to effects of muscle coactivation on force production and perception. In particular, we predicted that subjects would produce unintentional force increase by finger flexors and be unaware of this force increase. Healthy subjects performed steady force production task in isometric conditions with visual feedback on the force level....

The Influence of External Additional Loading on the Muscle Activity and Ground Reaction Forces during Gait
PublicationAsymmetrical external loading acting on the usculoskeletal system is generally considered unhealthy. Despite this knowledge, carrying loads in an asymmetrical manner like carrying on one shoulder, with one hand, or on the strap across the torso is a common practice. This study is aimed at presenting the effects of the mentioned load carrying methods on muscle activity assessed by using thermal field and ground reaction forces....

Convolutional Neural Networks for C. Elegans Muscle Age Classification Using Only Self-Learned Features
PublicationNematodes Caenorhabditis elegans (C. elegans) have been used as model organisms in a wide variety of biological studies, especially those intended to obtain a better understanding of aging and age-associated diseases. This paper focuses on automating the analysis of C. elegans imagery to classify the muscle age of nematodes based on the known and well established IICBU dataset. Unlike many modern classification methods, the proposed...

New perspective on the in vivo use of cold stress dynamic thermography in integumental reconstruction with the use of skin-muscle flaps
PublicationAmong the problems encountered by plastic surgeons is the reconstruction of defects following tumors. One of the reconstructive options is TRAM flap. Despite that anatomy is well-explored, marginal flap necrosis may develop. To minimize complications imaging examinations was designed to determine the degree of flap perfusion. One of them is the thermographic examination.
