The purpose of this study was to determine the true intraocular pressure and modulus of elasticity of the human cornea in vivo. The cornea was modeled as a shell, and the equations for the deformations of a shell due to applanating and intraocular pressures were combined to model the behavior of the

## Abstract Static stretching (SS) is commonly used to prevent or improve limited joint mobility. However, it is unclear whether the components of the muscleβtendon unit (MTU) are affected by 5βmin of SS. This study investigated the acute and prolonged effect of SS on the mechanical properties of t
## Abstract In this study, the forceβlength characteristics of the in vivo medial (GM) and lateral (GL) heads of the human gastrocnemius muscle were estimated from measurements in eight healthy male subjects. This involved: 1) dynamometryβbased measurements of the moment generated during maximal is
## Abstract ## Purpose To demonstrate the feasibility of in vivo calf muscle fiber tracking in human subjects. ## Materials and Methods An EPIβbased diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) sequence with sixβdirection diffusion gradient sensitization was implemented, and DT images were acquired at 3 Tesla
