Elastic Energy Storage and Radial Forces in the Myofilament Lattice Depend on Sarcomere Length

We most often consider muscle as a motor generating force in the direction of shortening, but less often consider its roles as a spring or a brake. Here we develop a fully three-dimensional spatially explicit model of muscle to isolate the locations of forces and energies that are difficult to separ...
