About The Book

<p>Prosthetic biomechanics is an interdisciplinary field of engineering medicine and biology focused on enhancing people’s lifestyles. In the past 20 years the field of prosthetic biomechanics and its potential have grown due to the support of advances in engineering technologies.</p><p>Prosthetic Biomechanics in Engineering is about the recent advances in prosthetic engineering research. The scope of the book is focused on the design development and evaluation of a prosthetic systems that are being used in biomechanical applications. The book covers advanced materials conceptual design classification ergonomics design applications brain computer interface (BCI) system motion analysis postural stand stability upper and lower limb prosthetics types of suspension systems for prosthetics Fiber Bragg Grating-based techniques and pressure on the residual limb and the socket. The early chapters effectively describe new sensors for in-socket systems new pylon material and advanced gait analysis. Further chapters discuss advanced techniques for the design and development of prosthetics based on clinical and emergency uses.</p><p>The information provided in this book is intended for researchers and investigators to encourage further advances in the field of prosthetics research and for the development of rehabilitation equipment for the improvement of human health and it:</p><ul> <p> </p> <li>Presents recent advances in prosthetic biomechanics engineering research</li> <p> </p> <li>Discusses the design and development of limb prosthetic systems</li> <p> </p> <li>Explores advanced concepts of the prosthetic sockets</li> <p> </p> <li>Describes gait analysis of prosthetics and orthotics</li> </ul><p>Dr Noor Azuan Abu Osman is a practicing engineer and Professor of Biomechanics with Department of Biomedical Engineering Faculty of Engineering University of Malaya Malaysia.</p>
