The influence of prosthetic foot design and walking speed on below-knee amputee gait mechanics
Unilateral below-knee amputees commonly experience asymmetrical gait patterns and develop comorbidities in their intact (non-amputated) and residual (amputated) legs, with the mechanisms leading to these asymmetries and comorbidities being poorly understood. Prosthetic feet have been designed in an...
