What is Finite Element Model for Transtibial Prosthetics about?
This study developed a finite element model (FEM) to analyze transtibial prosthetic sockets with elastomeric liners, focusing on the interface stresses that can lead to skin breakdown. The model utilized MRI scans from three participants with different limb shapes to evaluate stress distribution during stance phase, identifying peak stress locations that correlated with prior skin issues. The findings suggest that the FEM can be a valuable tool for assessing the effects of prosthetic design on limb-socket i
