Abstract:
All prosthetic foot designs, adapted in common use, don't imitate the specific qualities of a typical human foot. The premise of this task is to explore current prosthetics so as to plan and assemble a more human like prosthesis. In attempted such a structure, the new prosthesis will show a more extensive scope of qualities than those showed in current prosthetic feet. In doing as such, the new prosthesis will give a closer portrayal of the capacities inalienable to an ordinary human foot. The qualities associated with ordinary strolling incorporate dorsiflexion foot test. The qualities showed

Abstract:
Amputation of a limb is always perceived as a catastrophe. The principles underlying creation of a stump adapted to modern prosthetic fittings must be fully understood and the patient managed by a multidisciplinary team. In paediatric patients, managing the prosthetic limb length is a crucial point that should be maintained according to the expected growth potential of the child. The main problem with child amputee is the heel height and adjustment of height of prosthesis during change of foot wears and bare foot walking. Children with congenital amputation and congenital anomalies need specia

Abstract:
Foot prosthesis is a replacement for the foot to overcome activity limitations due to disease, birth defects, accidents or amputations. Many foot prosthetics have been developed in recent years to treat patients. However, prostheses on the market today have drawbacks, including their high price, lack of comfort, stiff ankles, and low durability. The main objective of this study is to develop an existing ankle-foot prosthesis design that approximates the resemblance of a human foot according to the anthropometry of Asians, especially Indonesians. This study contains the design of a prosthetic f

Abstract:
Prosthesis is an artificial replacement for a person's missing limb to help regain mobility and the ability to manage daily activities. The type of prosthetic covered in this project is for people with below-knee amputation (BKA). Muscle fatigue is a major issue for amputees who lose a lower limb after prolonged use of artificial limbs. Available designs of prosthetics for BKA are also expensive. This study aims to design and develop an affordable and comfortable prosthetic foot with an energy-story ability for persons with BKA using an additive manufacturing process to help reduce fatigue.

Abstract:
Changing footwear often presents a challenge for lower extremity prosthesis users. When prosthesis alignment is completed by the Certified Prosthetist, the prosthetic foot is set at an angle accommodating a single shoe heel rise (shoe heel height minus forefoot height); deviation from this heel rise causes misalignment of the prosthesis. To address this problem, the Rehabilitation & Engineering Center for Optimizing Veteran Engagement & Reintegration (RECOVER) has developed a modular ankle-feet system allowing for the use of footwear of varying heel rises without the need for realignme

Abstract Background: The prosthetic management of Syme’s amputation is a challenge when it comes to the attachment of SACH foot. SACH foot is made up of small narrow wooden keel which is covered by soft flexible sponge rubber therefore it is difficult to attach SACH foot directly to the Syme’s socket. Moreover, there is no rigid structure of the SACH foot available for bonding with the laminated socket considering the Syme’s amputee. Aim: This new design of prosthetic foot provide easy attachment to the Syme’s socket, thus helping in the prosthetic management of Syme’s amputation. Methodology:

Abstract:
An optimally aligned prosthesis, as accomplished by the subjective judgment of the prosthetist, guarantees the best quality of gait. Yet, amputees can adapt to a large variety of geometrical configurations of the prosthetic components. Different external rotation angles of the foot in trans-tibial (TT) prostheses were investigated. The study tried to identify (a) the relationship between foot angle and other gait parameters and (b) the compensating pattern of the amputees to excessive external rotation of the foot.

Abstract:
Specifications of actuators when interacting with biological systems such as the human body are entirely different from those used in industrial machines or robots. One important instance of such applications is assistive devices and prostheses. Among various approaches in designing prostheses, recently, semi-active systems attracted the interest of researchers. Even more, some commercial systems benefit from designs such as implementing an adjustable damper in the ankle prosthesis to increase range of motion. The main reason for adding damper is to assist amputees’ walking locomotion on slope

Currently there are nearly 2 million people living with limb loss in the United States [1]. Many of these individuals are either transtibial (below knee) or transfemoral (above knee) amputees and require an ankle-foot prosthesis for basic mobility. While there are an abundance of options available for individuals who require an ankle-foot prosthesis, these options fail to mimic an intact ankle when it comes to key evaluation criteria such as range of motion, push-off force, and roll over shape. The roll over shape is created by plotting the center of pressure during a step in a shank-based coo

Abstract:
The first step to study and develop a two Degrees of Freedom (DOF) prosthesis is to derive a dynamic model for simulation and control design. In this paper, the ankle-foot prosthesis has controllable Dorsi-Plantarflexion (DP) and Inversion-Eversion (IE) DOF. We derive a compliant dynamic model for a recently developed ankle-foot prosthesis followed by identification of the actuators, transmission, and prosthetic foot parameters. The resulting model is then verified experimentally and in simulation. Dynamic decoupling of the actuators to the ankle’s DP and IE DOF is also investigated using Bode

Abstract:
Approximately 82 percent of all amputations performed in the United States are transtibial amputations, in which the leg is removed below the hiee. Because the knee joint is left intact the use of prosthetics is one of the most preferred methods for returning mobility to amputees. The improvement of prosthetics for transtibial amputees is currently an area of intense research. This paper summarizes the state of the art of prosthetics for transtibial amputees by focusing on the four major components associated with standard transtibial prosthetic. The socket transfers the forces between the res
