The mechanics of agonistic muscles. Journal of Biomechanics, doi:10.1016/j.jbiomech.2018.07.0071873-2380http://hdl.handle.net/1880/10777910.11575/PRISM/43924In this study, we tested two assumptions that have been made in experimental studies on muscle mechanics: (i) that the torque-angle properties are similar among agonistic muscles crossing a joint, and (ii) that the sum of the torque capacity of individual muscles adds up to the torque capacity of the agonist group.enUnless otherwise indicated, this material is protected by copyright and has been made available with authorization from the copyright owner.
