Hello,

 

 

I am looking for a method (other than trial and error) to determine how many layers of carbon fiber would be required to design the custom carbon fiber flexible foot plate of a posterior leaf spring AFO style transmetatarsal prosthesis.

 

Does anyone any methods based on patient weight, activity level, foot and foot -plate length?

 

Thank you,
