An Approach for Simulation of the Muscle Force Modeling It by Summation of Motor Unit Contraction Forces

Figure 2

Simulation of the muscle and MUs’ forces using the same regular pattern for all MUs. 50 stimuli with IPI of 20 ms were applied to each MU. (a) The whole muscle force is in black, the sum of forces of all slow MUs is in red, the sum of forces of all FR MUs is in blue, and the sum of all FF MUs is in green. (b)–(d) present the simulated forces of one , one FR, and one FF MU, respectively, after application of the same firing pattern. Note that the force scales are different for the four plots.
