Study the Impact Behavior of the Prosthetic Lower Limb Lamination Materials Due to Low Velocity Impactor
Main Article Content
Abstract
This work involves three parts , first part is manufacturing different types of laminated below knee prosthetic socket materials with different classical laminated materials used in Baghdad center for prosthetic and orthotic (4perlon layers+2carbon fiber layer+4 perlon layers) , two suggested laminated materials(3perlon layers+2carbon fiber layer+3 perlon layers) and (3perlon layers+1carbon fiber layer+3 perlon layers) ) in order to choose perfect laminated socket . The second part tests (Impact test) the laminated materials specimens used in socket manufacturing in order to get the impact properties for each socket materials groups using an experimental rig designed especially for this purpose. The interface pressure between the residual leg and prosthetic socket is also measured to cover all the surface area of the B-K prosthetic socket by using piezoelectric sensor in order to estimate the resulting stress according to loading conditions. A male with age, length, mass, and stump length of 42 years, 164 cm, 67 Kg and 13 cm respectively with a right transtibial amputation is chosen to achieve the above mentioned test procedures. The last part suggests a theoretical and analytical models for each group of specimen to find out the absorbed energy behavior and subjected maximum stress for each laminated B-K prosthetic socket materials .
