Abstract

This paper presents the "threshold-crossing" motoneurone model. The model is verified by the experimental results, obtained from human experiments. The results of computer simulation based on this model explain discrepancies found in the literature concerning experimental investigation of the relationship between motoneuron excitability and its firing rate and show that most valuable experimental results may be obtained, when the stimulation by week stimuli is superimposed on the low-frequency motoneuronal firing.
