Using mechanical testing to assess the effect of lower-limb prosthetic socket texturing on longitudinal suspension.
To function effectively, a lower limb prosthetic socket must remain securely coupled to the residual limb during walking, running and other activities of daily living; this coupling is referred to as suspension. When this coupling is insufficient longitudinal pistoning of the socket relative to the...
