Nonlinear Muscles, Passive Viscoelasticity and Body Taper Conspire To Create Neuromechanical Phase Lags in Anguilliform Swimmers
Figure 14
Effects of removal of muscle length and velocity dependence on the wave speeds of activation and response.
Left panel: no length dependence; right panel: no velocity dependence. Force density reduced to ΞΆ = 0.025 in both cases.
