Energetics of Shortening Muscles in Twitches and Tetanic Contractions : II. Force-Determined Shortening Heat

The extra heat liberation accompanying muscular shortening, the force-determined shortening heat, is defined as the difference between the heat produced when shortening occurs and that produced in an isometric contraction developing the same amount of force and performing the same amount of interna...
