Modelling soft liners for BK prosthetics

Christine Fisher

To O&P list members

I am currently involved in the finite element modelling of Below Knee

sockets (for my PhD research), in particular the modelling of the soft

liners and the interface between the hard socket and soft tissue. I have

just completed an initial study modelling polyurethane gel liner material

and have started to get some interesting results. The model is non-linear

and has been experimentally validated.

If anyone is doing similar work I would like to get in touch.

Thanks for your time

Christine Fisher.
