Abstract

The skeletal muscle is regarded as a periodically deformed plate. An equation of energy for the biological tissue in the system is used in the Lagrange variables. With the heat exchange through the above tissues to the exterior media and also with account of some relations between the physiological factors the approximate analytical solution for this equation is obtained and compared with the physiological data.
