DOI: 10.1007/s12541-019-00156-3
Abstract: Prosthetic feet with composite plates satisfy the gait requirements since they are able to provide additional energy for efficient walking when they dissipate stored elastic energy. In this study, laminated-type prosthetic foot with composite plates… read more here.
