Prosthesis design based on an asymmetric passive dynamic walker

International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics, 2012
This paper presents a theoretical design of a transfemoral prosthesis based on physical asymmetries. Breaking the mold of current prostheses, we propose a general prosthetic leg design in which the knee location is shifted off its traditional knee line ...

Parametric modeling of sports prostheses based on the flat spring design formulas

Journal of Biomechanical Science and Engineering, 2019
Sports prosthesis for lower-extremity amputees has a mechanical structure similar to flat springs, and its elastic energy is expected to improve sports performance. However, it is quite challenging to represent the mechanical phenomena during the takeoff

Importance of preclinical evaluation of wear in hip implant designs using simulator machines

Revista Brasileira de Ortopedia
Total hip arthroplasty (THA) is a surgical procedure that involves the replacement of the damaged joint of the hip by an artificial device. Despite the recognized clinical success of hip implants, wear of the articulating surfaces remains as one of the ...

Transient elastohydrodynamic lubrication analysis of a novel metal-on-metal hip prosthesis with a non-spherical femoral bearing surface

, 2011
Effective lubrication performance of metal-on-metal hip implants only requires optimum conformity within the main loaded area, while it is advantageous to increase the clearance in the equatorial region.

Dynamic 3D printed titanium copy prosthesis: a novel design for large chest wall resection and reconstruction.

Journal of Thoracic Disease, 2016
Due to high rates of complications, chest wall resection and reconstruction is a high risk procedure when large size of resection is required. Many different prosthetic materials have been used with similar results.

Design and validation of a novel 3D-printed glenohumeral fusion prosthesis for the reconstruction of proximal humerus bone defects: a biomechanical study

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology
BackgroundAll available methods for reconstruction after proximal humerus tumor resection have disadvantages, and the optimal reconstruction method remains uncertain. This study aimed to design a novel 3D-printed glenohumeral fusion prosthesis and verify
