A planimetric representation of a pennated muscle. Pennation angle (θ) is assumed to be measured at optimal fascicle length in musculoskeletal models. The superficial and deep aponeuroses are a muscle thickness (t) apart and a muscle fascicle of optimal length Lfopt spans the distance between the two aponeuroses.
