Structural Properties and Viscoelastic Modeling of Dynamic Elastic Response Prosthetic Feet
نویسندگان
چکیده
Material tests of prosthetic feet were performed on an Instron (Canton, MA) 8521 Servohydraulic Material Testing Machine. The feet tested represent the majority of prosthetics prescriptions for prosthetic feet and included multiple samples of: Seattle Voyager and Lightfoot, College Park TruStep, Ohio Willow Wood Carbon Copy HP, Kingsley Steplite Flattie and Steplite Strider, Otto Bock Dynamic Plus, and the Flex Foot Variflex.

Dynamic response determination of viscoelastic annular plates using FSDT – perturbation approach
In this paper, the transient response of a viscoelastic annular plate which has time-dependent properties is determined mathematically under dynamic transverse load. The axisymmetric conditions are considered in the problem. The viscoelastic properties obey the standard linear solid model in shear and the bulk behavior in elastic. The equations of motion are extracted using Hamilton’s principle...
متن کاملSize-Dependent Analysis of Orthotropic Mindlin Nanoplate on Orthotropic Visco-Pasternak Substrate with Consideration of Structural Damping
This paper discusses static and dynamic response of nanoplate resting on an orthotropic visco-Pasternak foundation based on Eringen’s nonlocal theory. Graphene sheet modeled as nanoplate which is assumed to be orthotropic and viscoelastic. By considering the Mindlin plate theory and viscoelastic Kelvin-Voigt model, equations of motion are derived using Hamilton’s principle which are then solved...
متن کاملAnalysis of Five Parameter Viscoelastic Model Under Dynamic Loading
The purpose of this paper is to analysis the viscoelastic models under dynamic loading. A five-parameter model is chosen for study exhibits elastic, viscous, and retarded elastic response to shearing stress. The viscoelastic specimen is chosen which closely approximates the actual behavior of a polymer. The module of elasticity and viscosity coefficients are assumed to be space dependent i.e. f...
متن کاملEfficiency of dynamic elastic response prosthetic feet.
Following years of accepting the Solid Ankle Cushion Heel (SACH) foot as the optimum compromise between durability and functional effectiveness, as well as being of reasonable cost, several new feet with dynamic elastic response qualities have been designed. The stimulus for these new designs is the recent development of materials which offer the potential to "store and release energy" in a man...
متن کاملStructural analysis of the deck of access bridges in offshore docks under dynamic loading of moving heavy vehicles (Case study: 10 feet concrete deck with prefabricated beam, under the passage of 125-ton bogie)
Ports are the most important economic, political and military bottlenecks. This puts shoreline structures (port) in the class of important structures and they have a crucial role in the countries’ life. Pile and deck wharf and their access bridges and offshore deck (jetties), are one of the parts which are supplier of coupling between the land and the waterfront. Correct and exact estimation of...
