Modeling and Identification of Mechanical and Reflex Properties related to Spasticity in Stroke Patients using Multiple Pendulum Tests

We propose a method for the comprehensive identification of spastic and intrinsic properties of spastic knee joints using multiple pendulum tests. The stretch reflex system was modeled as a velocity feedback loop where the key component was the muscle spindle model generating the afferent signals wi...
