Muscle preflex response to perturbations in locomotion: In vitro experiments and simulations with realistic boundary conditions

Neuromuscular control loops feature substantial communication delays, but mammals run robustly even in the most adverse conditions. In vivo experiments and computer simulation results suggest that muscles’ preflex—an immediate mechanical response to a perturbation—could be the critical contributor....
