Determining a musculoskeletal system’s pre-stretched state using continuum–mechanical forward modelling and joint range optimization

Okan Avci,
Oliver Röhrle

Abstract: The subject-specific range of motion (RoM) of a musculoskeletal joint system is balanced by pre-tension levels of individual muscles, which affects their contraction capability. Such an inherent pre-tension or pre-stretch of muscles is not measureable with in vivo experiments. Using a 3D continuum mechanical forward simulation approach for motion analysis of the musculoskeletal system of the forearm with 3 flexor and 2 extensor muscles, we developed an optimization process to determine the muscle fibre pre-str… Show more

“…The change in biceps brachii muscle force observed in our study aligns closely with the findings of Avci and Röhrle, who investigated the pre-stretched state of musculoskeletal systems using continuum-mechanical forward modeling and joint range optimization. Their study highlighted significant variations in muscle force during different phases of movement, which is consistent with the muscle force patterns we observed during dynamic exercises such as the dumbbell curl [45]. In another study, Schutz et al analyzed shoulder and elbow joint moments during bench press training using a quasi-static inverse dynamics approach.…”
