Abstract

Commercial prosthetic feet weigh about 25% of their equivalent physiological counterparts. The human body is able to overcome the walking asymmetry resulting from this mass imbalance by exerting more energy. It is hypothesised that the passive walking dynamics coupled with roll-over shapes has poten...
