Design of a Semipowered Stance-Control Swing-Assist Transfemoral Prosthesis
IEEE/ASME transactions on mechatronics, 2020 This article describes the design of a new type of knee prosthesis called a stance-control swing-assist (SCSA) knee prosthesis. The device is motivated by the recognition that energetically passive stance-controlled microprocessor-controlled knees ...
