The human–prosthesis interface is one of the most complicated challenges facing the field of prosthetics, despite substantive investments in research and development by researchers …
The distribution of interface stresses between the residual limb and prosthetic socket of a transtibial amputee has been considered as a direct indicator of the socket quality fit and …
Socket is an important part of every prosthetic limb as an interface between the residual limb and prosthetic components. Biomechanics of socket‐residual limb interface, especially the …
A sensor system for measurement of pressure and shear at the lower limb residuum/socket interface is described. The system comprises of a flexible sensor unit and a data acquisition …

Introduction A key determinant of prosthesis use is the quality of fit of the prosthetic socket. The socket surrounds the residual limb and applies the appropriate force distribution to the …
The recent use of graduated compression therapy for treatment of chronic venous disorders such as leg ulcers and oedema has led to considerable research interest in flexible and low …
It has been proposed that finite element analysis can complement clinical decision making for the appropriate design and manufacture of prosthetic sockets for amputees. However …
Pressure senor array is widely used in gait analysis and robotics. To meet the demand on different sizes and reduce the manufacture costs, in this paper, we proposed a design …
Background Transtibial amputees encounter stairs and steps during their daily activities. The excessive pressure between residual limb/socket may reduce the walking capability of …
