| Abstract(in English) | The authors have constructed a model that can precisely simulate knee joint angular acceleration waveforms measured at pendulum test, and have also improved the model so that it may convert the waveform of any subject into that of a standard virtual one with the same degree of spasticity. In the report, we propose a way to estimate spasticity using the latter model. We first clarify from the results of simulation that it is difficult to discriminate the difference between waveforms induced by two inputs (F_i, F_N) at pendulum test. Second we show that many combinations of (F_i, F_N) correspond to only one value of the index obtained from any existing method for spasticity estimation and, based on the result, try to estimate the spasticity quantitatively using a two dimensional space separated into four regions according to its degree. Each of the marks (●,◎,○,□) shows the number of reflex generations on the way of pendulum test. |
