چکیده

This work presents a morphological analysis of the evolution of the lateral foot shape with different heel heights. The purpose of the study was to set up a procedure to obtain the shank curve of feet for different heel heights and to develop a mathematical algorithm to calculate this curve for any heel height. This will have applications in the design of shoe components such as soles, lasts, steel shanks, etc., taking into account the foot shape, with the objective of improving comfort in high-heeled shoes.

Development of inexpensive prosthetic feet for high-heeled shoes using simple shoe insole model.

The large majority of prosthetic feet are aimed at low-heeled shoes, with a few models allowing a heel height of up to 5 cm. However, a survey by the American Podiatric Medical Association indicates that most women wear heels over 5 cm; thus, current prosthetic feet limit most female prosthesis users in their choice. Some prosthetic foot components are heel-height adjustable; however, their pla...
