Abstract

Muscle contraction mechanism has been studied on microlevel (chemical reactions in a sarcomere). Sarcomere contraction mechanism is based on interaction between actin and myosin filaments and can be described by a chemical reaction which has a mathematical model in the form of ordinary differential equations system. The most effective for solution of inverse kinetic problem for this system is a parallel variant of genetic algorithm. Parallel computations have been used for effective organization of computational process.
