Design and evaluation of a hybrid passive–active knee prosthesis on energy consumption
<p>The existing lower limb prostheses with passive knees have disadvantages, causing an asymmetric gait and higher metabolic cost during level walking which is in contrast with a normal gait. However, most existing active knee prostheses need a significant amount of energy. In this paper, a no...
