abstract：:In the present work a linear model for a pair of antagonistic muscles is analysed. Each constituent muscle in this model is identical to ones considered previously (Stein and Oğuztöreli, 1976). Analytical properties of the antagonistic muscles and dynamics of the system are described and some numerical results are dis...
