Muscle activity damps the soft tissue resonance that occurs in response to pulsed and continuous vibrations
Bibliographic record
Abstract
This study tested the hypotheses that when the excitation frequency of mechanical stimuli to the foot was close to the natural frequency of the soft tissues of the lower extremity, the muscle activity increases 1) the natural frequency and 2) the damping to minimize resonance. Soft tissue vibrations were measured with triaxial accelerometers, and muscle activity was measured by using surface electromyography from the quadriceps, hamstrings, tibialis anterior, and triceps surae groups from 20 subjects. Subjects were presented vibrations while standing on a vibrating platform. Both continuous vibrations and pulsed bursts of vibrations were presented, across the frequency range of 10-65 Hz. Elevated muscle activity and increased damping of vibration power occurred when the frequency of the input was close to the natural frequency of each soft tissue. However, the natural frequency of the soft tissues did not change in a manner that correlated with the frequency of the input. It is suggested that soft tissue damping may be the mechanism by which resonance is minimized at heel strike during running.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
