Design of 3D printable prosthetic foot to implement nonlinear stiffness behavior of human toe joint based on finite element analysis
Abstract Toe joint is known as one of the critical factors in designing a prosthetic foot due to its nonlinear stiffness characteristic. This stiffness characteristic provides a general feeling of springiness in the toe-off and it also affects the ankle kinetics. In this study, the toe part of the p...
