An alternative approach to determine material characteristics using spherical indentation and neural networks for bulk metals (2012)
Journal Article

Material characteristics such as Young modulus, yield, and ultimate stresses are often considered as fundamental material parameters. Determination of material characteristics using the instrumented indentation test has gained interest among many res...

Static and dynamic pressure prediction for prosthetic socket fitting assessment utilising an inverse problem approach (2012)
Journal Article

Objective: It has been recognised in a review of the developments of lower-limb prosthetic socket fitting processes that the future demands new tools to aid in socket fitting. This paper presents the results of research to design and clinically test...

Improvements in the accuracy of an Inverse Problem Engine's output for the prediction of below-knee prosthetic socket interfacial loads (2010)
Journal Article

The monitoring of in-service loads on many components has become a routine operation for simple and well-understood cases in engineering. However, as the complexity of the structure increases so does the difficulty in obtaining an acceptable understa...

An artificial intelligence approach for measurement and monitoring of pressure at the residual limb/socket interface - A clinical study (2008)
Journal Article

A good-fitting prosthetic socket requires the pressure between the stump and socket to be distributed to ensure the load is carried by pressure tolerant regions of the limb. Transducers and Finite Element Analysis have been utilised to measure and mo...
