Description

<p>In pendulum-test of seated subjects, measured waveforms had frequently included much distortion due to the lower-leg supporting force remained after its release. The authors had tried to correct it by approximating the damping pattern of the force with a linear one. In this study, we used a more accurate damping pattern of quadratic curve in place of the linear pattern. The former pattern was derived from variation of lower-leg supporting pressure measured on the way of the pendulum-test. The results of inverse simulation to waveforms measured from two healthy subjects and two spastic patients showed that its accuracy was improved more highly than in the case of the linear pattern and there existed considerable difference between estimations of spasticity obtained under two patterns. A future work is to grope for possibility of practical use.</p>
