The Comparison of Material and Force Difference on the Development of Lower Limb Exoskeleton Design for Post Stroke Patients

Abstract

Stroke has become a leading cause of paralysis in some countries such as Indonesia. Exoskeleton as one of the supporting tools which is used after the stroke attack playing an important role to help the post stroke patient in the daily life. A study on the material and torsion is conducted in this research to obtain an information in regards to the displacement, strain and stress of the product during the simulation. As the result of the simulation, a comparison between some the materials is known and should be considered during the prototyping process.
