Simple geometrical analysis for mechanizing the ankle joint stretching treatment procedure of a PT using a numerical calculation
In this paper, to mechanize a human ankle joint stretching treatment that is mainly performed by a PT (Physical Therapist), the geometrical relationships among the Ankle joint, Hip joint, Sole, and pushing device rotation center are analyzed using a simple numerical calculation model, and the effect...
