| Research Abstract |
Prosthesis is a critical device for lower limb amputee to compensate for part of the function of the leg. In this study, we proposed a design process of high-performance hip disarticulation prosthesis (HDP), for which the most advanced technology is required in the lower limb prostheses, incorporating a driving element, therefore we have developed a power HDP by using the proposed design tool. In this project, we developed a system for collecting body dynamics data of a prosthesis user during walking, constructed a neuromuscular gait simulation model which can reproduce the walking transient state, and developed an active HDP.
