Investigating effects of mechanical properties of trans-tibial prostheses on user performance (2008)
Journal Article
Major, M., Twiste, M., Kenney, L., & Howard, D. (2008). Investigating effects of mechanical properties of trans-tibial prostheses on user performance. Journal of Biomechanics, 41(S1), 416-416. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0021-9290%2808%2970415-9

As the design of trans-tibial prostheses has continued to advance, this has led to a wide range of alternative commercially available modular components, which when assembled comprise the trans-tibial prosthesis.
