Figure 8


Fig. 8. (A) Mean peak force (fp) reached at end of constant velocity stretching of the third abdominal segment ventral interior lateral muscle from 90 to 110% of resting length was associated with stretch velocity (v) by the relationship fp=0.480v0.141 (N=5, r2=0.997, P<0.0001). (B) Mean time constant ({tau}) of force decay from the peak values shown in A with the muscle held at 110% of resting length was associated with stretch velocity (v) by the relationship {tau}=0.504v0.255, N=5, r2=0.99, P<0.0001). Values are means ± 1 s.e.m.
