In this book, the effectiveness of various physical therapies in
the conservative treatment of Achilles tendinopathy are reviewed.
An evaluation on the length changes in the Achilles tendon in
humans is explored as well. The tendon is considered to have a
significant role in human movement because it can store and release
elastic energy, which enhances the force-generating capability of
the muscle-tendon complex. The third chapter outlines the
advantages and disadvantages of the Achilles tendon and highlights
some theories as to why humans may have evolved to have it. The
last chapter discusses the basic biomechanical characteristics and
forces acting on the ankle under static conditions and their
influences on artificial total ankle replacement designs.
