Patterns of asymmetry and energy cost generated from predictive simulations of hemiparetic gait
by Russell T. Johnson, Nicholas A. Bianco, James M. Finley
Hemiparesis, defined as unilateral muscle weakness, often occurs in people post-stroke or people with cerebral palsy, however it is difficult to understand how this hemiparesis affects movement patterns as it often presents alongside a variety of other neuromuscular impairments. Predictive musculoskeletal modeling presents an opportunity to investigate how impairments affect gait performance assuming a particular cost function. Here... Читать дальше...
