15 صفحه اولSynthesis of Prosthesis Architectures and Design of Prosthetic Devices for Upper Limb Amputees
This chapter presents a procedure for the Determination of the Optimal Prosthesis Architecture for upper limb amputees (DOPA). The presented approach can consistently manage both the clinical aspects and the technical issues involved in the design of electromechanically actuated prostheses. The procedure is composed on one hand of algorithms useful for analyzing the patients’ requirements and o...
