• 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 ...

• Biomechanical recovery factors in non-surgically treated ruptured Achilles tendons : Biomechanics of the Achilles tendon after rupture 

  Khair, Raad (Jyväskylän yliopisto, 2023)

  Achilles tendon rupture (ATR) is a frequent and disabling injury. In the last decade the incidence of ATR has been increasing especially in middle aged men participating in recreational sports. Plantar flexion strength ...

• 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)

• Achilles tendon and triceps surae muscle properties in athletes 

  Sukanen, Maria; Khair, Ra’ad M.; Ihalainen, Johanna K.; Laatikainen-Raussi, Iida; Eon, Pauline; Nordez, Antoine; Finni, Taija (Springer Science and Business Media, 2024)

  Purpose The aim of this study was to investigate internal Achilles tendon (AT) displacement, AT shear wave velocity (SWV), and triceps surae (TS) muscle shear modulus in athletes. Methods Internal AT displacement was ...
