Computing wheelchair drag force from the system's total weight value and distribution

A 3-D surface equation was used to estimate changes of the resultant braking forces (F b ) during real life conditions of manual wheelchair locomotion from the weight of the system (W) and its relative fore-and-aft distribution (D) on the front castors due to the subject movement.
