An analysis of muscle contraction based on irreversible thermodynamics is presented in this work. From reported experimental results, it is shown that a muscle, as an energy converter, does not obey linear phenomenological relations. Some more suitable nonlinear phenomenological relations are found
Huxley's sliding filament crossbridge muscle model coupled with parallel and series elastic components was simulated to examine the effect of various solution techniques in cardiac contractions. Solutions of both isometric and isotonic contraction cases showed that the force versus time curves were
