A spasticity model based on feedback from muscle force explains muscle activity during passive stretches and gait in children with cerebral palsy

Muscle spasticity is characterized by exaggerated stretch reflexes and affects about 85% of the children with cerebral palsy. However, the mechanisms underlying spasticity and its influence on gait are not well understood. Here, we first aimed to model the response of spastic hamstrings and gastrocn...
