Fellow listmembers -
I am interested in finding inertial properties for a few different types of
BK limbs. Specifically, I want to be able to change the anthropometry
section in a gait analysis software package to accomodate children with
prostheses. Normally, the foot and tibia portions are related to Winter's
anthropometric data, based on proportions of the subject's whole body mass.
While I have length measurements for a TT pediatric prosthesis with a SACH
foot (and overall weight of this limb), I don't have the mass distribution.
I would also be interested in finding the radius of gyration. I am waiting
for a few papers on this topic through interlibrary loan, but could anyone
else offer some insight? Thanks.
