Properties of Biological Materials -- Skeletal Muscle Basic Concepts
Classification of Muscles Striated muscles skeletal muscles: voluntary contraction cardiac muscles non-striated (smooth) muscles
Function of Skeletal Muscle To create motion by producing force To provide strength To protect joints by absorbing shock
Components of Skeletal Muscles Fascia Epimysium Fascicle perimysium muscle fiber (cell) endomysium sacrolemma myofibril: myosin and actin
Components of Muscle Fibers muscle fiber: a long cylindrical cell with hundreds of nuclei 10-100 m in diameter 1-30 cm in length myofibril: contractile component Biomechnics is a discipline of science, newly developed and in the process of becoming established. myosin crossbridge actin
Sliding Filament Mechanism AF Huxley & HE Huxley, 1964 active shortening of sacromere, resulting from the relative movement of actin and myosin filaments with retaining its original length force of contraction is developed by the crossbridges of myosin
Movement of Cross Bridges
Excitation-Contraction Coupling An action potential in the sacrolemma provides electrical signal which triggers calcium ions undergoing chemical reactions of contraction
Types of Muscle Contraction Static work isometric contraction Dynamic work concentric contraction eccentric contraction isokinetic contraction
Isokinetic Contraction joint moment Isokinetic mg M Isotonic joint angle F
Force Production in Muscle Length-Tension relationship Load-Velocity relationship Force-Time relationship
Length-Tension Relationship The tension that a muscle generates varies with its length Obtained under isometric contractions and for maximum activation of the muscle
Length-Tension Curve of A Single Muscle Fiber sacromere length tension resting length
Length-Tension Curve total tension tension active passive tension
Mechanical Model of Skeletal Muscle Fiber parallel elastic component series elastic component contractile component
Length-Tension Curve length tension total tension active passive
Force-Velocity Curve Hill’s model contraction velocity force eccentric concentric isometric
Force-Time Curve isometric force force time
Effect of Temperature temperature nerve conduction velocity frequency of stimulation muscle force temperature enzyme activity efficiency of muscle contraction temperature elasticity of collagen extensibility of muscle muscle force
Muscle Atrophy cross-sectional area of fibers number of muscle fibers aerobic capacity by changing the proportion of muscle fiber types sedentary people: # of type I fibers athletes: fiber type affected by that sports
Muscle Hypertrophy By physical training By electric stimulation cross-sectional area of muscle fibers number of muscle fibers change in proportion of muscle fiber types By electric stimulation
