Navigating the course: assessing wheelchair mobility performance of rigid and folding manual wheelchair frames in able-bodied participants
The hybrid frame, as intermediary solution, exhibited better WMP than the folding frame, with higher linear and rotational velocities and acceleration. Although its rotational WMP parameters were slightly inferior to the rigid frame, it retains the advantage of being foldable.
