Patellar tendon in vivo regional strain with varying knee angle (2017)
Journal Article
Pearson, S., Mohammed, A., & Hussain, S. (2017). Patellar tendon in vivo regional strain with varying knee angle. Journal of Biomechanics, 61, 45-50. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2017.06.038

Purpose: Descriptive data on the aspects of site specific in vivo tendon strain with varying knee joint angle are non-existent. The present study determines and compares surface and deep layer strain of the patellar tendon during isometric contract...

Changes in tendon spatial frequency parameters with loading (2017)
Journal Article
Pearson, S., Engel, A., & Bashford, G. (2017). Changes in tendon spatial frequency parameters with loading. Journal of Biomechanics, 57, 136-140. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jbiomech.2017.03.017

To examine and compare the loading related changes in micro-morphology of the patellar tendon. Fifteen healthy young males (age 19±3yrs, body mass 83±5kg) were utilised in a within subjects matched pairs design. B mode ultrasound images were taken in...
