Abstract

This study was for mathematical method of calculating the joint reaction force during on single - leg stance on a normal and hemiplegic patients. It is important to compare the distance of the line of gravity from the hip joint on hemiplegic patients with this on normal in this study. In earlier studies, there is no include the concept about biomechanical analysis on the shin of line of gravity of hemiplegic patients. Though this concept, we found the compensation make the line of gravity closer to the supporting hip joint and the trunk was toward the side of paralysis. The result of the Joint reaction force on hemiplegic patients is found to be approximately $31.33\%$ in the unaffected side by biomechanical analysis.
