Abstract

Mathematical methods or computer software are used for dynamic analysis of skeletal muscles. Mathematical methods could be challenging because of nonlinear equations forms. The use of special software for muscle mechanics requires expertise. Therefore, a model needs to be developed that can be easily used by researchers to analyse muscle mechanics. In this study, a simulation model is proposed for biceps brachii using MATLAB tools. A dynamic analysis of the forearm curls exercise with dumbbell was performed using this simulation model. Elbow joint moment, biceps brachii force and muscle work were calculated. The results were as follows: The joint moment was between 14.45 – 28.24 Nm, the maximum muscle force was 941.5 N and the muscle work was 27.58 J. It is thought that the results can be used in prosthesis and orthosis designs and in the evaluation of rehabilitation processes. Examinations for different exercises and different muscle groups can be carried out by modifying the model easily.

Abstract

İskelet kaslarının dinamik analizleri için matematiksel yöntemler veya bilgisayar yazılımları kullanılmaktadır. Matematiksel yöntemler doğrusal olmayan yapılarından dolayı uğraştırıcı olabilir. Kas mekaniğine yönelik geliştirilen özel yazılımları kullanmak ise uzmanlık gerektirmektedir. Dolayısıyla kas mekaniği analizleri için herkes tarafından kolaylıkla kullanılabilecek bir model geliştirilmesine ihtiyaç vardır. Bu çalışmada MATLAB araçları kullanılarak pazu kası için bir benzetim modeli önerilmektedir. Model kullanılarak dambıl ile ön kol bükme egzersizinin dinamik analizi gerçekleştirilmiştir. Dirsek eklemi momenti, pazu kası kuvveti ve kas işi hesaplanmıştır. Eklem momenti değişiminin 14.45 – 28.24 Nm arasında, maksimum kas kuvvetinin 941.5 N ve kas işinin 27.58 J olduğu bulunmuştur. Elde edilen sonuçların, protez ve ortez tasarımlarında ve rehabilitasyon süreçlerinin değerlendirilmesinde kullanılabileceği düşünülmektedir. Model üzerinde kolayca değişiklik yapılarak farklı egzersizler ve farklı kas grupları için incelemeler yapılabilir.
