Ex vivo tendon mechanical behavior has been well described under rotationally constrained uniaxial tensile testing. During standard loading of rat tail tendon (RTT) fascicles, apparent axial twist has been observed. To quantify this behavior, we designed a custom testing setup, utilizing magnetic suspension, to allow unconstrained axial rotation during tensile loading. We characterized the rotational...
Repetitive hammer use has been associated with strain and musculoskeletal injuries. This study investigated if using a shock-control hammer reduces forearm muscle strain by observing adverse physiological responses (i.e. inflammation and localized edema) after use.Three matched framing hammers were studied, including a wood-handle, steel-handle, and shock-control hammer. Fifty volunteers were randomly...
