A laser light diffractometer has been developed to measure directly the total degree of polarization of ({ie145-1}) of light
diffracted and randomly scattered from striated muscle fibers. From {ie145-2} the degree of polarization ({ie145-3}) of light
diffracted from the periodically arranged contractile filaments is determined. Measurements on single muscle fibers and small
fiber bundles indicate that both {ie145-4} and {ie145-5} of the firstorder diffraction decrease monotonically with sarcomere
length. For the second-order diffraction, {ie145-6} and {ie145-7} exhibit a peak at sarcomere length of about 3.0 μm. A proposed
theory based on the anisotropic light scattering efficiencies of the thick and thin filaments can account for the measurements.
The comparison between the theory and measurements indicates that the A-band, as well as the I-band, are optically anisotropic. 相似文献

Reconstructing the biomechanics of early hominid mastication is a key element in most models of hominid differentiation. Traditionally, ostelogical features marking muscle attachment surfaces have served as a reference system from which the vector geometry of the masticatory force system and resultant force distributions could be predicted. To augment traditional morphological and computational approaches, we developed a simulation system capable of replicating human and non-human primate chewing motions. The forces of occlusion are recorded as photoelastic fringes in a urethane alveolar process. Simulation experiments evaluating the functional correlates of topographic diversity in zygomatic root position and mandibular ramus height in early hominids indicated that the mandibles and dentitions of robust australopithecines are well adapted to sustain high magnitude, low gradient load distributions. 相似文献

Single fibers were isolated from the semitendinosus muscle of frog and illuminated with an He-Ne laser. The polarization of
the laser beam was varied by a photoelastic modulator. The time course of the degree of polarization of light diffracted from
the muscle fiber during an isometric contraction was measured directly with a time resolution of 1 ms. Tension, sarcomere
length, and diffraction intensity were also measured. During the contraction cycle, the degree of polarization of the active
fiber exhibited a biphasic variation relative to that of the resting fiber. Analysis identifies the movement of heavy meromyosin
toward actin and the rise in myoplasmic calcium ion concentration as the main contributors to the polarization transient of
active fibers. A quantitative theory describing the polarized diffraction from muscle fibers is formulated. There is good
agreement between the theory and measurements. 相似文献

Rupture prediction of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) remains a clinical challenge. Finite element analysis (FEA) may allow for improved identification for intervention timing, but the method needs further substantiation. In this study, experimental photoelastic method and finite element techniques were compared using an idealised AAA geometry. There was good agreement between the numerical and experimental results. At the proximal and distal end of the AAA model, the maximum differences in principle strain for an internal pressure of 120 mmHg had differences ranging from 0.03 to 10.01%. The maximum difference in principle strain for the photoelastic and the finite element model at a pressure of 120 mmHg was 0.167 and 0.158, respectively. The current research strengthens the case for using FEA as an adjunct to the current clinical practice of utilising diameter measurement for intervention timing. 相似文献
