Design of an underactuated prosthesis arm
2016 6th IEEE International Conference on Biomedical Robotics and Biomechatronics (BioRob), 2016In motion design of a prosthesis arm, number of actuators is considered the most crucial part. The higher number of actuator allows us to have many degree of freedom while results in the heavy weight of the device. In the past, motors and pneumatic systems are commonly used as actuators for prosthesis devices.

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 ...

Design Optimization and Prosthesis Classification
2015The evolution of reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (rTSA) is presented from a prosthesis design perspective along with the results of a design optimization analysis in which 32 different geometric iterations of the Grammont reverse shoulder were evaluated to identify parameters that minimize scapular impingement while maximizing range of motion and ...

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.

Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1975
The new patella prosthesis design is based on an anatomical study of 80 arthritic patellas and on the normal patellofemoral contact area under loading in cadaver knees. The metal dome-shaped prosthesis is attached by a central pin. The patellar prosthesis is constructed either of metal or plastic for use in combination with the Hospital for Special ...
