Abstract

The series elasticity of strips of smooth muscle from pig urinary bladder was investigated by means of a series of computerised quick-release and quick-stretch measurements with and without stimulation of the muscle, and at different shortenings and force levels. The results cannot be interpreted in terms of a discrete passive series-elastic element. They can, however, be interpreted in terms of the sliding-filaments model for contracting muscle.
