Special Issue Information

Dear Colleagues,

We are pleased to announce the launch of a Special Issue entitled “Finite Element Analysis in Prosthesis and Orthosis Research”. The aim of this Special Issue is to showcase the state-of-the-art advances in this area, and to seek papers related to finite element analysis (FEA) and its application in prothesis and orthosis research and development. Furthermore, FEA is employed in the design and optimization of a wide range of implants including dental implants, artificial organs, upper and lower limb prostheses, orthotic insoles, braces, and splints, significantly changing the prosthetic and orthotic industry, and we would like to invite the submissions on these domains as well. Both original research articles and review articles are welcome under this Special Issue. We encourage multinational collaboration for this Special Issue to submit the novel studies with interdisciplinary work.

We look forward to receiving your excellent work.

Dr. Arnab Chanda
Guest Editor
