An Improved Understanding of Spasticity Using the Pendulum Test

New model lends additional insight into physiological mechanisms of spasticity in cerebral palsy
A group of scientists have proposed to define change in force over time as "yank." We don’t feel motion if it’s smooth. What we do feel is acceleration or deceleration: changes in speed over time. However, muscles appear to respond to changes in force over time.
A New Term in Biophysics: force/time = “yank”

Research enhance the vocabulary in the study of study of jumping, sprinting, capturing prey and maintaining balance
