Trans-radial Socket Coupling Problems And Solutions (2024)
Thesis

There has been relatively little research into the assessment of socket fit in upper-limb
prosthetics, in comparison to lower-limb prosthetics. Whilst this reflects the smaller
population of potential users, the global need for devices is nonethele... Read More about Trans-radial Socket Coupling Problems And Solutions.

Why doesn’t a prosthetic hand always do what it’s told? (2022)
Journal Article

There are online videos which appear to show electrically-powered prosthetic hands to be nearperfect replacements for a missing hand (e.g. https://youtu.be/F_brnKz_2tI). However, for
many users, the reality can be different. Prosthetic hands don’t a... Read More about Why doesn’t a prosthetic hand always do what it’s told?.

A pin-array method for capturing tissue deformation under defined pressure distributions and its application to prosthetic socket design (2020)
Journal Article

The Fit4Purpose project aims to develop upper limb prosthetic devices which are suitable for deployment in lower- and middle-income countries (LMIC's). Open-frame trans-radial socket designs are being considered, formed of several, linked components,...
