Targeted Achilles Tendon Training and Rehabilitation Using Personalized and Real-Time Multiscale Models of the Neuromusculoskeletal System

Targeted Achilles Tendon Training and Rehabilitation Using Personalized and Real-Time Multiscale Models of the Neuromusculoskeletal System

Musculoskeletal tissues, including tendons, are sensitive to their mechanical environment, with both excessive and insufficient loading resulting in reduced tissue strength. Tendons appear to be particularly sensitive to mechanical strain magnitude, and there appears to be an optimal range of tendon...
