Preliminary results on the effects of orthopedic implant stiffness fixed to the cut end of the femur on the stress at the stump-prosthetic interface

Ismail Boudjemaa, A. Sahli, A. Benkhettou, S. Benbarek

A lot of trans-femoral amputation patients experience skin breakdown due to the pressures and shear stresses in the stump-prosthesis interface. In this study, a finite element model was employed to investigate the stresses at the stump…

Effect of multi-layer prosthetic foam liner on the stresses at the stump–prosthetic interface

Ismail Boudjemaa, Abderahmane Sahli, Abdelkader Benkhettou, Smail Benbarek

The prosthetic liner plays a significant role in the redistribution of the pressure between the stump and the socket, as it adding a cushioning layer between the stump and the socket which relieves pain and makes the prosthesis more…
