Achilles tendon stress is more sensitive to subject-specific geometry than subject-specific material properties: A finite element analysis

This study used subject-specific measures of three-dimensional (3D) free Achilles tendon geometry in conjunction with a finite element method to investigate the effect of variation in subject-specific geometry and subject-specific material properties on tendon stress during submaximal isometric load...
