The human iliotibial band is specialized for elastic energy storage

Musculoskeletal models developed from anatomical experiments reveal the biomechanical features that increase the potential of the human iliotibial band to store and recover elastic energy during bipedal walking compared with the chimp fascia lata. ABSTRACT This study examines whether the human iliotibial band (ITB) is specialized for elastic energy storage

The Catapult Mechanism: Elastic Recoil of Fascial Tissues

Here the tendons and the fascia of the legs are tensioned like elastic bands. The release of this stored energy is what makes the amazing hops possible. Hardy surprising, scientist thereafter found the same mechanism is also used by gazelles. Surprisingly it has been found that the fasciae of human have a similar kinetic storage capacity to

The Role of Arch Compression and Metatarsophalangeal Joint

Elastic energy returned from passive-elastic structures of the lower limb is fundamental in lowering the mechanical demand on muscles during running. The purpose of this study was to investigate the two length-modulating mechanisms of the plantar fascia, namely medial longitudinal arch compression and metatarsophalangeal joint (MPJ) excursion, and to

Modeling foot arch, plantar fascia, and intrinsic muscles

The stored energy is released at push-off, resulting in energy-efficient propulsion. Our simulations are therefore in agreement with previous experimental work suggesting that intrinsic foot muscles regulate foot stiffness to control the storage and transfer of mechanical energy [[7], [8], [9]]. Adapting the foot model to represent deformities

Intrinsic foot muscles contribute to elastic energy storage and

When active, the FDB muscle fascicles contracted in an isometric manner, facilitating elastic energy storage in the tendon, in addition to the energy stored within the plantar aponeurosis. We propose that the human foot is akin to an active suspension system for the human body, with mechanical and energetic properties that can be actively

Muscle and Tendon Energy Storage

Elastic energy storage is also an important mechanism by which the work produced by a muscle in series with a tendon can be used to amplify the power output (work/time) of the muscle-tendon unit as a whole . This allows muscle-tendon units to serve as catapults when an animal jumps or when a person throws a ball. The work done by a muscle to

Clinical Relevance of Fascial Tissue and Dysfunctions

The effectiveness of energy storage in fascial tissue is reinforced by several animal examples: gazelles and kangaroos use connective tissue as an elastic spring, utilizing this mechanism in their primary methods of locomotion . A totally different but no less intelligent mechanism is provided by the fascia of the spleen: racehorses are able to

Elastic energy storage technology using spiral spring devices and

Elastic energy storage devices store mechanic work input and release the stored energy to drive external loads. Elastic energy storage has the advantages of simple structural principle, high reliability, renewability, high-efficiency, and non-pollution [16], [17], [18]. Thus, it is easy to implement energy transfer in space and time through

The Role of Arch Compression and Metatarsophalangeal Joint

Introduction. Running is an elastic gait, relying on the storage and release of elastic strain energy, primarily in tendons and ligaments, to reduce the mechanical demands on lower limb muscles [1, 2].Arguably the most well-studied example in human locomotion is the Achilles tendon, which has been estimated to contribute as much as 35% of the mechanical

Elastic energy storage and the efficiency of movement

Cyclical storage and release of elastic energy may reduce work demands not only during stance, when muscle does external work to supply energy to the center-of-mass, but also during swing, when muscle does internal work to reposition limbs. Indeed, elastic structures are used as passive antagonists to rapidly reposition the limb between

Elastic energy within the human plantar aponeurosis contributes

In situ testing has suggested that during running, the elastic tissues within the arch of the human foot can store 17 J of EE and contribute significantly to metabolic energy savings (Ker et al., 1987).To provide context, the Achilles tendon is considered to be the primary site of EE storage and release during gait, contributing approximately 30–40 J per step (Ker et

Elastic energy storage and the efficiency of movement

Striated muscle uses chemical (metabolic) energy to produce force, to move this force over a distance to do work, and to do this work within some time to generate power. The metabolic energy consumed in producing these mechanical outputs is a major component of an organism''s energy budget, particularly during repetitive, cyclical movements.

The authors fondly remember Farish A. Jenkins Jr. (1940–2012) for many stimulating and insightful discussions. Professor Jenkins helped guide C.M.E.'s dissertation rese.Healthy fascia appears in a two-directional, (lattice) arrangement of this collagen fiber network. A larger degree of crimp (wavy appearance) of individual collagen fibers allows for an increase in elastic storage capacity for optimal force production (33). One unique property of fascia is its elastic capacity used to store kinetic energy.
