Research regarding the design and manufacturing of hand orthosis by using Fused Deposition Modeling technology
The article presents the designing of an orthosis used for immobilization of the hand after a surgical operation or bone fracture. Finite element analysis was used for the shape optimization of the orthosis, in close connection with constrains given by the mechanical resistance of the part and const...
