calc_MU_firing_rate_funcsR Documentation

Calculate the firing-rate-force relationship of all MUs

Description

For each MU calculate a function that gives its firing rate in dependence of the current muscle work load.

Usage

calc_MU_firing_rate_funcs(muscles, MUs)

Arguments

muscles

A data frame containing information on the muscles.

MUs

A data frame containing MU objects.

Details

Note that this includes the different MU's activation threshold, as before being activated the firing rate of a MU is just zero. The muscle work load should be given in the ratio of the maximum voluntary contraction (MVC) of the muscle, i.e., a value between 0 and 1.

Value

A data frame containing a column $rate.function that gives the function described above for each MU.
