Choosing appropriate prosthetic ankle work to reduce the metabolic cost of individuals with transtibial amputation

Powered ankle prostheses have been designed to reduce the energetic burden that individuals with transtibial amputation experience during ambulation. There is an open question regarding how much power the prosthesis should provide, and whether approximating biological ankle kinetics is optimal to re...
