The aim of this work was to study the different types of passive articulated and non-
articulated ankle–foot orthoses for gait rehabilitation in terms of working principles, control …

Ankle–foot orthoses (AFOs) constitute medical instruments designed for patients exhibiting
pathological gait patterns, notably stemming from conditions such as stroke, with the primary …

Purpose This study aims to investigate the fabrication of solid ankle foot orthoses (SAFOs)
using fused deposition modeling (FDM) printing technology. It emphasizes cost-effective 3D …

This article presents the topology and material optimization of an underactuated lower limb
robot for gait rehabilitation of stroke survivors. Robot aided lower limb rehabilitation has …

Ankle-foot orthoses (AFOs) are typically prescribed to improve the gait function of
ambulatory children with neurological conditions such as cerebral palsy or spina bifida. Due …

Background The purpose of this study was to evaluate the effect of varying the different
correction angles of hindfoot osteotomy orthosis on the biomechanical changes of the …

Abstract 3D printers are distinct from other manufacturing technologies in that they provide
faster, easier, and less costly solutions, in addition, allowing the design of different complex …

Ankle foot orthosis (AFO) is widely used to prevent foot drop and improve walking ability for
individuals with cerebral palsy and stroke. However, traditional anterior AFO (TAAFO) could …

Individuals with a drop-foot generally have issues of foot-slap and toe-drag, and ankle-foot
orthoses (AFOs) have been developed for them to address the drop-foot gait. However, the …

The spine is a critical component of the human body, supporting balance, flexibility, and
natural movement. However, scoliosis, a condition where the curvature of the spine exceeds …
