Propulsion propulsion propulsion

This part is the most prominent of my research so far, I needed to understand the nature of the wheelchair and the work that has been done to improve its shortcomings. So far, under manual wheelchairs the biggest problem seems to be the energy lost by the user when operating the chair by him or herself.

where to go from here

the research process has proven challenging at best due to the specific condition of my problem statement. As I research I realize there is a considerable amount of information in propulsion of manual wheelchairs, but very little on the sanitary issues due to direct contact with the wheelchair. From the information accumulated in the analysis of previous research papers, information in the class and interviews with my expert in wheelchairs I have constructed a time line and a pert chart to limit my goals and manage the time needed to complete this project
