Gravitational and dynamic components of muscle torque underlie tonic and phasic muscle activity during goal-directed reaching

2017-05-15

Abstract excerpt

Human reaching movements require complex muscle activations to produce the forces necessary to move the limb in a controlled manner. How gravity and the complex kinetic properties of the limb contribute to the generation of the muscle activation pattern by the central nervous system (CNS) is a long-standing question in neuroscience. To address this question, muscle activity is often subdivided into static and phas...
