Constraint-Induced Movement Therapy Simulator

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 simulator runs a governing ODE for cortical territory A(t) against the two levers a real CIMT protocol actually manipulates — mitt constraint intensity and daily forced-use hours — plus a shaping toggle for task-specific practice, and renders the outcome as an expanding patch on a schematic motor-cortex grid alongside live territory and motor-function readouts.
