• Effects of ageing on Achilles tendon properties and triceps surae muscle architecture in vivo 

  Stenroth, Lauri (2012)

  Achilles tendon is the largest tendon in human body and it has an important role in human locomotion. Ageing is associated with lowered muscle function and the changes in tendon properties could have a major role in ...

• Repeatability and sensitivity of passive mechanical stiffness measurements in the triceps surae muscle‐tendon complex 

  Walker, Josh; Bissas, Athanassios; Wainwright, Barney; Hanley, Brian; Cronin, Neil J. (Wiley-Blackwell, 2022)

  Measurements of muscle-tendon unit passive mechanical properties are often used to illustrate acute and chronic responses to a training stimulus. The purpose of this study was to quantify the inter-session repeatability ...

• Calf muscle activation strategies in healthy and injured achilles tendon conditions 

  Masood, Tahir (University of Jyväskylä, 2015)

• Functional muscle architecture in aging 

  Hoffrén-Mikkola, Merja (University of Jyväskylä, 2014)

• Non-uniformity of displacement and strain within the Achilles tendon is affected by joint angle configuration and differential muscle loading 

  Maas, Huub; Noort, Wendy; Baan, Guus C.; Finni, Taija (Elsevier, 2020)

  Although the Achilles tendon (AT) has been studied for more than a century, a complete understanding of the mechanical and functional consequences of AT structural organization is currently lacking. The aim of this study ...
