Computational models of flatfoot with three-dimensional fascia and bulk soft tissue interaction for orthosis design

The finite element (FE) method has been widely used to investigate the internal force of plantar fascia, which could reveal the relationship between plantar fascia dysfunction and flatfoot deformity during weight-bearing conditions. However, for most foot FE models, plantar fascia utilized truss ele...
