Low-profile prosthetic foot stiffness category and size, and shoes affect axial and torsional stiffness and hysteresis
IntroductionPassive-elastic prosthetic feet are manufactured with numerical stiffness categories and prescribed based on the user's body mass and activity level, but mechanical properties, such as stiffness values and hysteresis are not typically reported. Since the mechanical properties of pas...
