Hemiplegia is a type of paralysis that affects one side of the body due to stroke, characterizing severe weakness or rigid movement. Many people of different age groups are affected by this condition which cannot be completely cured but can be minimized through proper physiotherapy. A continuous and repeated exercise has to be given to the hemiplegic subjects to regain their motor function. To serve this purpose, a three-dimensional model of wheelchair contrived with lower limb exoskeleton is designed and motion analysis is done using SolidWorks. This virtual model of the object is created with the assistance of computer-aided design software. Professionals can be able to do the experiment on what-if scenarios with their three-dimensional designs, which helps to validate their devices and identify any snags with design quality. The pattern of behaviour of lower limb exoskeleton is predicted using SimMechanics in MATLAB.
偏瘫是一种由于中风而影响身体一侧的瘫痪类型,其特征是严重的虚弱或僵硬运动。许多不同年龄段的人都受到这种无法完全治愈但可以通过适当的物理治疗来最小化的情况的影响。必须对偏瘫患者进行持续和重复的运动,以恢复其运动功能。为此,设计了一种带有下肢外骨骼的轮椅三维模型,并使用 SolidWorks 进行运动分析。该物体的虚拟模型是在计算机辅助设计软件的帮助下创建的。专业人员可以使用他们的三维设计进行假设情景的实验,这有助于验证他们的设备并发现设计质量方面的任何问题。下肢外骨骼的行为模式使用 MATLAB 中的 SimMechanics 进行预测。
