Evaluation of a Viscoelastic Ankle-Foot Prosthesis at Slow and Normal Walking Speeds on an Able-Bodied Subject
Objectives: This paper describes further improvement and preliminarily evaluation of a novel viscoelastic ankle-foot prosthesis prototype. The objective was to control the ankle hysteresis at slow and normal walking speeds. Methods: Inspired by the ankle biomechanics, in which the hysteresis differs based on the gait speeds, a manually damping control mechanism imbedded in the prosthesis for...
متن کاملdevelopment and implementation of an optimized control strategy for induction machine in an electric vehicle
in the area of automotive engineering there is a tendency to more electrification of power train. in this work control of an induction machine for the application of electric vehicle is investigated. through the changing operating point of the machine, adapting the rotor magnetization current seems to be useful to increase the machines efficiency. in the literature there are many approaches wh...

Figure 1. The bionic prosthesis’ mass of 2.0 kg is equivalent to a biological foot and partial shank of an 80 kg person. The prosthesis includes a carbonfiber in-series leaf spring, unidirectional parallel leaf spring, and heel and forefoot leaf springs that provide elasticity. A series-elastic actuator performs negative and positive work. The actuator is comprised of a 200-Watt DC brushless mo...
