A new study from Umeå University, Sweden, shows that the body's muscles sense mechanical pressure. This new discovery has important implications for movement neuroscience and may improve the design of ...

A team of researchers has developed a simple lab-based system for growing human muscle cells that are capable of vigorously contracting. A team of researchers at Tohoku University have developed a ...

New wearable device technology and research from the University of Wisconsin-Madison allows doctors to measure muscle-tendon forces in a non-invasive method. Even though today we can easily measure ...

A team of scientists has constructed a robot leg that, like its natural model, is very energy efficient. BirdBot benefits from a foot-leg coupling through a network of muscles and tendons that extends ...

Soft tissue deformation during body movement has long posed a challenge to achieving optimal garment fit and comfort, ...
