The relative compliance of energy-storing tendons may be due to the helical fibril arrangement of their fascicles
A nonlinear elastic microstructural model is used to investigate the relationship between structure and function in energy-storing and positional tendons. The model is used to fit mechanical tension test data from the equine common digital extensor tendon (CDET) and superficial digital flexor tendon...
