A prosthesis ankle-foot is an artificial replacement of a transtibial (below the knee) or transfemoral (above the knee) amputee for basic mobility. The aim of this study is to develop a passive prosthetic ankle-foot design and simulate the strength for transtibial or transfemoral that will support a more natural gait. Inspired by the role of the ankle-foot of an able-bodied gait, the compliant mechanism ankle-foot was designed. The design of the ankle-foot was obtained by the software SolidWorks. Then the strength analysis was done using ANSYS. The simulation was done with a walking gait cycle. Compared to existing prostheses, the novel prosthesis exhibits a greater and significantly different ankle than existing prostheses during gait. The compliant mechanism could improve the quality of life for a growing number of individuals living with limb loss in Indonesia and around Asia. The ankle-foot design in this study is new by developing existing designs so that the results are more flexible when used in walking conditions. The design is also adapted to Indonesian anthropometry so that it will further increase the comfort for prosthesis users in this country. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
