The initial motivation for creating this model was the desire to have a computational model of the human jaw that can be used to simulate the action of simple bites, and to calculate the stresses and forces on the teeth that are involved.

The human masseter is a multilayered, complex muscle contributing to jaw motion. ... Jaw motion to the ipsilateral side causes little length change in any part, and the effect of tendon-stretch on estimated fiber lengths is not substantial. The stretch that occurs infers there are task-related changes in the active and...
