The purpose of this paper is to undertake a systematic review on various mechanical design
considerations, simulation and optimization techniques as well as the clinical applications of …

The biological ankle dorsiflexes several degrees during swing to provide adequate
clearance between the foot and ground, but conventional energy storage and return (ESR) …

Lower limb prosthesis users are at an increased risk of developing osteoarthritis in their
intact knee. There is a scarcity of literature examining how the stiffness properties of …

By using new materials and different design techniques not just the strength of the
transfemoral prosthesis was improved also the reaction forces which were come from the …

Modeling the nonlinear dynamics of prosthetic feet is an important tool for linking prosthesis
mechanical properties to end-user outcomes. There has been a renewed interest in data …

Introduction Passive-elastic prosthetic feet are manufactured with numerical stiffness
categories and prescribed based on the user's body mass and activity level, but mechanical …

An optimal prosthesis prescription is vital for restoring mobility and societal participation in
people with limb loss. Clinicians try their best to choose prosthetic components that best …

People with unilateral transtibial amputation typically use passive-elastic and running-
specific prostheses to walk and run, respectively. Passive-elastic and running-specific …

Passive-elastic prosthetic feet are manufactured with different numerical stiffness categories
that are prescribed based on the body mass and activity level of the user, but the mechanical …

This paper describes the modelling and analyses of a transfemoral prosthesis. The
prosthesis design was done in SolidWorks as it includes, the modelling of a foot model that …
