Abstract

The numerical use of a general model of skeletal muscular contraction allows one to study some physiological phenomena. Rigor mortis is explained in terms of the ATP metabolism and is clearly distinguished from muscular fatigue. Dysfunctions of the muscular magnesium‐calcium metabolism are simulated after showing the existence of magnesium‐calcium regulation.
