In recent years, the development of prosthetic limbs has increased due to the various studies that have been carried out around Biomechanics. These technological advances have allowed many amputee patients to return to ...

swim fin prosthesis has been manufactured for a transtibial amputee patient by 3D printers using glycol-modified polyethylene terephthalate associated with a video recording analyzer that allows the measurement of the ...

This study aimed at evaluating spatiotemporal parameters (STP) and symmetry index (SI), commonly used for evaluating amputee gait for routine clinical use, in individuals with unilateral transtibial amputations wearing ...

This work presents an application of optical fiber sensors based on Bragg gratings integrated to a transtibial prosthesis tube manufactured with a polymeric composite systrem of epoxy resin reinforced with glass fiber. The ...

The liner works as an interface between the prosthesis socket and the user's residual limb, provides comfort, safety, pressure relief, high temperature control and can optimize the suspension system for transtibial and ...

(Eng) Currently, finite element analysis techniques are used to reduce costs in the manufacturing process of sports prostheses. This study primarily focuses on the finite element analysis of a ...

This Thesis Project develops the Design and Additive Manufacturing of a transtibial socket made by powder bed fusion. The use of digital three-dimensional technologies is registered in the entire research, the stump ...
