Biomechanical Evidence for the Proactive Balance Strategy as a Functional Analogue of the Ankle Strategy During Stationary Manual Wheelchair Wheelies
Background/Objectives: Maintaining a stationary manual wheelchair wheelie is a highly demanding dynamic postural control task that can be biomechanically modeled as an inverted pendulum. Although skilled wheelchair users employ a Proactive Balance Strategy (PBS) characterized by small rhythmic wheel movements, its unde...
