Design of bionic active-passive hybrid-driven prosthesis based on gait analysis and simulation of compound control method.

<bold>Purpose: </bold>The purpose of this paper is to design a prosthetic limb that is close to the motion characteristics of the normal human ankle joint.<bold>Methods: </bold>In this study, combined with gait experiments, based on a dynamic ankle joint prosthesis, an active-passive hybrid-driven prosthesis was designed. On this basis, a real-time control algorithm based on the feedforward compensation angle outer loop is proposed. To test the effectiveness of the control method, a multi-body dynamic model and a controller model of the prosthesis were established, and a co-simulation study was carried out.<bold>Results: </bold>A real-time control algorithm based on the feedforward compensation angle outer loop can effectively realize the gait angle curve measured in the gait test, and the error is less than the threshold. The co-simulation result and the test result have a high close rate, which reflects the real-time nature of the control algorithm. The use of parallel springs can improve the energy efficiency of the prosthetic system.<bold>Conclusions: </bold>Based on the motion characteristics of human ankle joint prostheses, this research has completed an effective and feasible design of active and passive ankle joint prostheses. The use of control algorithms improves the controllability of the active and passive ankle joint prostheses. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
