Design and verification of a finite element analysis model for predicting deflection of actively actuated prosthetic sockets
A lower limb prosthesis provides assistance to its user in both ambulation and stationary support. The lower limb prosthesis consists of a socket, which interfaces with the residual limb, a pylon, attachment hardware to secure the pylon to the socket, and a prosthetic foot. For the prosthesis to be...
