    • Biomechanical Analysis of Lower Limb Prosthesis 
      Patrick, Shawanee O (2016-08-01)
      This thesis presents a case study of the initial analysis of self-contained powered transfemoral (TF) prosthesis (AMPRO II). We analyze how the prosthesis influences the biomechanics of TF amputee walking gait. TF amputees ...
    • Human Performance Modeling of Upper Limb Prosthetic Devices 
      Park, Junho (2023-05-02)
      Limb amputation can cause severe functional disability for the performance of activities of daily living (ADLs). Amputee patients use prosthetic devices (PDs) to perform ADLs. PDs require a substantial amount of cognitive ...
    • Improving the Design Metrics of Walking Assistive Devices 
      Patrick, Shawanee O (2021-12-07)
      There are millions of people who are unable to be mobile without the use of mobility aids. Being mobile, and more specifically walking, has a great impact on a person’s quality of life. Not being able to walk, as well as ...
    • Upslope Walking with Transfemoral Prosthesis Using Optimization Based Spline Generation 
      Paredes Cauna, Victor Christian (2016-04-22)
      Powered prosthetic devices are robotic systems that are aimed to restore the mobility of subjects with amputations above the knee by imitating the behavior of a normal human leg. Powered prostheses have diverse advantages ...
