Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy Simulator (2D)

2D top-down model of Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy (CIMT): set stroke severity, restrain the unaffected arm, dial in daily forced-use practice hours, and watch a competitive use-dependent plasticity model reorganize the motor-cortex hand map.

Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy restrains the unaffected arm and forces hours of intensive, shaped practice with a stroke-affected limb, driving competitive use-dependent reorganization of the hand's map in primary motor cortex. This 2D companion runs the same governing ODE for cortical territory A(t) against the two levers a real CIMT protocol manipulates — mitt constraint intensity and daily forced-use hours — plus a shaping toggle and a stroke-severity preset that sets the starting territory and non-use decay rate, rendering the outcome as an expanding patch on a flat top-down motor-cortex grid alongside live territory and motor-function readouts.
