Subject-Specific 3D Models to Investigate the Influence of Rehabilitation Exercises and the Twisted Structure on Achilles Tendon Strains

The Achilles tendon (AT) is the largest tendon of the human body and has a primary role in locomotor activities. The complex structure of the AT includes twisting of three sub-tendons, non-uniform tissue deformations and differential triceps surae muscle forces. The main aim of this study was to inv...
