Generate Motor Units for a Muscle
Description
Assign MU properties according to muscle parameters.
Usage
generate_MUs_for_muscle(muscle)
Arguments
muscle
A muscle object.
Details
MUs have a set of parameters (recruitment thresholds, peak twitch force,
number of innervated fibers) that are closely related, and which follow an
exponential distribution: There are many MUs that are generated early, have a
low peak twitch force and innervate few fibers. On the other side of the
spectrum, there are few MUs that are recruited only at high force demand
levels, attain a high peak twitch force and innervate many fibers.
The exact parameters of the distribution are a property of the muscle.
Value
A list of muscle$num_MUs MU objects. Contains MU objects of
class either "MU_rect" or "MU_circ", as defined by muscle$MU_class.
