Design and characterization of a powered elbow prosthesis
2015 37th Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society (EMBC), 2015This paper describes the design of a powered elbow prosthesis, which incorporates a belt and cable drive transmission with a brushless DC motor to achieve an output torque of approximately 18.4 Nm, a backdrive torque of 1.5 Nm, and a speed of up to 360 deg/s while remaining within the anthropomorphic envelope with regard to mass and size.

Design and fabrication of an experimental cochlear prosthesis
Medical & Biological Engineering & Computing, 1983The technical and safety requirements for intracochlear electrical stimulation to restore hearing in the profoundly deaf are reviewed. A system has been implanted in human subjects which comprises a 16-contact flexible electrode array, radio receiver/stimulator and surgical disconnect which permits changing from percutaneous cable to transcutaneous ...

Structural design of costomized femoral prosthesis
2017 IEEE International Conference on Cybernetics and Intelligent Systems (CIS) and IEEE Conference on Robotics, Automation and Mechatronics (RAM), 2017One of the main reasons for the loosening of the prosthesis is that the standard prosthesis can not meet the individual requirements of the human body, ignoring the shape of the marrow cavity, and can not match the human marrow cavity effectively.

Biomechanical Design of the Total Ankle Prosthesis
Engineering in Medicine, 1983The load bearing joints of the human body and particularly the ankle are often seriously damaged because of different pathological events. During the last 10 years a lot of total ankle prostheses have been studied and implanted, in consequence of the inadequate results obtained by arthrodesis (i.e. the fusion of the joint).

Design and testing of a flexible hip prosthesis
Clinical Biomechanics, 1994A prosthesis with flexibility and optimal proximal fit was constructed in titanium alloy. The aim was to create the same elasticity as in the femoral shaft. Distally it was cylindrical with slots in the stem and a spacer made of polymer was placed in the slots.

Design of a semi-active knee prosthesis
2009 IEEE International Conference on Robotics and Automation, 2009Current state-of-the-art prostheses for transfemoral amputees operate exclusively through controlled damping or through fully powered gait imitation. The passive devices cannot restore a natural gait, and the active devices are large and inefficient. This paper summarizes the design of a new semi-active prosthetic knee that combines the proven safety ...

Design of a fully-passive transfemoral prosthesis prototype
2011 Annual International Conference of the IEEE Engineering in Medicine and Biology Society, 2011In this study, we present the mechanical design of a prototype of a fully-passive transfemoral prosthesis for normal walking. The conceptual working principle at the basis of the design is inspired by the power flow in human gait, with the main purpose of realizing an energy efficient device.
