A new passive transfemoral prosthesis mechanism based on 3R36 knee and ESAR foot providing walking and squatting

Theoretical and Applied Mechanics Letters, 2023
Researchers have proposed various linkage mechanisms to connect knee and ankle joints for above-knee prostheses, but most of them only offer natural walking. However, studies have shown that people assume a squatting posture during daily activities. This
