Analysis of the effect of path cross slope on manual wheelchair propulsion

Key Points

This work aims to analyze the effect of cross slope on manual wheelchair propulsion.
Assessment of cross slope conditions
Quantitative measurement of propulsion effort
Analysis of accessibility standards for outdoor paths
Identified significant effects of cross slope on manual wheelchair users
Proposed a method for quantifying cross slope impact
Suggestions for improved regulations on outdoor path design

Abstract

This work contributes insights into cross slope and a simple method for quantifying the magnitude of its effect on wheelchair users. Better regulation of cross slope would improve the accessibility of outdoor paths for manual wheelchairs users.
