23. STANDING OUT TO FIT IN
University essay from Lunds universitet/IndustridesignAbstract : Most women opt for so called cosmesis, a cover which mimics the look of a leg, on their prostheses in order to get real-looking legs. Their male counterparts usually choose to show the entire construction or parts of the raw prosthesis. However the cosmesis is in many cases lowering the functionality of the prosthetic leg.

25. Effective Optimization of Deployment for Wearable Sensors in Transfemoral Prosthesis
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Transfemoralor above-the-knee amputees face discomfort in their prothesis primarily due to irregular distribution of pressure and shear forces in the Socket-stump interface (SSI). To quantify this discomfort it is necessary to first determine the pressure distribution in the SSI using sensors. READ MORE
