Effect of synchronization of firings of different motor unit types on the force variability in a model of the rat medial gastrocnemius muscle.

The synchronized firings of active motor units (MUs) increase the oscillations of muscle force, observed as physiological tremor. This study aimed to investigate the effects of synchronizing the firings within three types of MUs (slow-S, fast resistant to fatigue-FR, and fast fatigable-FF) on the mu...
