Figure Legend Snippet: Opensim upper extremity musculoskeletal model shown from anterior, lateral, and posterior views, featuring 32 hill-type musculotendon actuators and 15 degrees of freedom across the shoulder, elbow, and wrist joints with subject-specific scaling. The views illustrate the complete muscle representation from different anatomical perspectives.
Techniques Used:
Figure Legend Snippet: Methodological framework comparing muscle synergies derived from experimental EMG and musculoskeletal modeling during BFOS, including data acquisition, signal processing, modeling, non-negative matrix factorization, and quantitative comparison of synergy components.
Techniques Used: Derivative Assay, Comparison
Figure Legend Snippet: Relationship between synergy number and global variance accounted for (VAF) from EMG (blue) and musculoskeletal model (red) during BFOS. Three synergies were optimal based on global VAF >90%, local VAF >75%, and <5% improvement with additional synergies ( p = 0.12, MANOVA).

Figure Legend Snippet: Comparison of (A) synergy weight vectors and (B) activation coefficients between EMG (blue) and musculoskeletal model (red) during BFOS. Three distinct functional synergies were identified: Synergy 1 (trapezius-dominant for scapular stabilization during preparation and early acceleration), Synergy 2 (pectoralis/anterior deltoid for shoulder flexion/internal rotation during late acceleration and impact), and Synergy 3 (posterior shoulder muscles for extension/external rotation during follow-through). The x -axis in panel A represents muscle weights ranging from 0-1 for each muscle (abbreviations defined in
