Load sharing between synergistic muscles characterized by a ligand-binding approach and elastography

Abstract The skeletal muscle contraction is determined by cross-bridge formation between the myosin heads and the actin active sites. When the muscle contracts, it shortens, increasing its longitudinal shear elastic modulus ( $${\mu }_{L}$$ μ L ). Structurally, skeletal muscle can be considered anal...
