Dear all,<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns =

As you may know, there have been many surveys of prosthetic knee joints
carried out during the last 3 decades. They have been very useful in
identifying areas for new developments. With the introduction of the
microprocessor knee control and advances in materials there have been many
technical opportunities for the design of a new generation of knee joints.
However, despite our in-depth understanding of the biomechanics of
locomotion, there seems to be a need to conduct a further survey to identify
the issues which have not been fully understood. For this reason, I will be
carrying out such a survey in the near future, the details of which will be
posted on this website. In the meantime, I would be delighted to hear from
you if you are interested in taking part and would like me to send details
directly to you.
With best wishes
