In order to perform activities of daily living (ADL), a person with an amputation(s) must use a greater than normal range of movement from other anatomical body joints to compensate for the loss of movement caused by the amputation, this is called compensatory motion. By studying the compensatory motion of prosthetic users the mechanics of how they adapt to the loss of range of motion in a given limb...
A model of the human upper limb was developed for predicting the motion of the human upper limb while performing activities of daily living. This study focuses on the effect of a joint limit function on the ability of the model to perform human like movements. This measurement was analysed by comparing the modelled joint movements with recorded movements of subjects while drinking from a cup, opening...
