Non-uniform contraction exists in many skeletal muscles and plays an important role in the function of the musculoskeletal system. Particularly in the gluteus medius (GM) muscle, its three subdivisions appear activated differently while performing various motion tasks. However, the non-uniform contractile mechanism of GM is poorly understood. In this study, a three-dimensional finite element (FE) model of GM was developed. Non-uniform contraction patterns of the three subdivisions of GM during abduction, internal and external rotat
