An investigation into the relationship between knee axis alignment and swing phase whip during trans-femoral amputee gait (2010)
Thesis

Lateral whip, which is defined as sideward motion of the prosthetic heel away from the
line of progression during swing phase of gait, is one of the common gait deviations that
trans-femoral amputees exhibit during walking. It poses several negativ... Read More about An investigation into the relationship between knee axis alignment and swing phase whip during trans-femoral amputee gait.

The effects of prosthetic alignment on gait biomechanics (2010)
Thesis

In clinical settings, trans-tibial prosthetic alignment is a primarily subjective procedure
that is based on: the clinical experience and judgment of prosthetists; and amputee
feedback regarding comfort, stability and performance, which can be unre... Read More about The effects of prosthetic alignment on gait biomechanics.
