Exergy Analysis of the Musculoskeletal System Efficiency during Aerobic and Anaerobic Activities

Exergy Analysis of the Musculoskeletal System Efficiency during Aerobic and Anaerobic Activities

The first and second laws of thermodynamics were applied to the human body in order to evaluate the quality of the energy conversion during muscle activity. Such an implementation represents an important issue in the exergy analysis of the body, because there is a difficulty in the literature in eva...
