2/ Muscle mass is usually assumed to have a negligible effect on contraction, but recent studies have shown that it decreases max contraction speed, rate of force development, and mass-specific work per cycle. For review see: https://t.co/d6LzBPZpYr

5/ Her final paper, "The energy of muscle contraction. III. Kinetic energy during cyclic contractions" is one of a three-part trilogy on muscle energy, using a dynamic continuum model of muscle that accounts for the non-trivial effects of kinetic energy! h
