The influence of the mechanical properties of trans-tibial prostheses on amputee performance
Achieving the required functionality of a trans-tibial prosthesis during the stance phase of gait (e.g., shock absorption, close to normal roll-over characteristics, and smooth transition into swing) depends on the "Amputee Independent Prosthesis Properties" (AIPP), defined here as the mec...
