Design of an Intervertebral Disc Prosthesis
Spine, 1991This article presents criteria for the design of a lumbar intervertebral disc prosthesis that take into consideration issues of endurance, materials behavior, geometry, kinetics, motion constraints, fixation to bone, and safety. The criteria and design philosophies discussed are generally applicable in the synthesis of any new implant system ...

An alternative design of extension prosthesis [PDF]
Prosthetics & Orthotics International, 1987 Some patients with a congenitally shortened lower limb can be fitted with a total contact socket of one piece construction, dispensing with the need for removable panels or split socket construction. This gives advantages in weight, strength and cosmesis. The technique is described and compared with those conventionally used.

Design of a total wrist prosthesis
Annals of Biomedical Engineering, 1984Diseased wrist joints, in such cases as rheumatoid arthritis, are often required to be replaced by a prosthesis to relieve pain and to recover the wrist function. In designing this replacement, it is essential to understand the behavior of a normal wrist joint in its kinematic and kinetic aspects.

Topological optimization in hip prosthesis design
Biomechanics and Modeling in Mechanobiology, 2009With particular interest on total hip arthroplasty (THA), optimization of orthopedic prostheses is employed in this work to minimize the probability of implant failure or maximize prosthesis reliability. This goal is often identified with the reduction of stress concentrations at the interface between bone and these devices.

Socket modelling assistant for prosthesis design
International Journal of Computer Aided Engineering and Technology, 2013In this paper, we propose a knowledge-based approach to design lower limb prostheses; in particular, we focus on the 3D modelling of the socket, the most critical component. First, the architecture of a dedicated design framework is described, detailing features of the main design steps.

Electromechanical Design Handset Prosthesis
2020 Moscow Workshop on Electronic and Networking Technologies (MWENT), 2020This paper describes the development and testing of an electromechanical hand prosthesis using feedback technology to compensate for lost tactile sensations partially, as well as how the device is controlled by neurointerface. In the course of this work, the following innovations, which distinguish this project from similar products of competitors ...

Design of a Multigrasp Transradial Prosthesis
Journal of Medical Devices, 2011This paper describes the design and performance of a new prosthetic hand capable of multiple grasp configurations, and capable of fingertip forces and speeds comparable to those used by healthy subjects in typical activities of daily living. The hand incorporates four motor units within the palm, which together drive sixteen joints through tendon ...
