Orthosis
The aim of orthotics is to increase the efficiency of function during acute or long-term injury. This includes soft-tissue and bony injury, as well as changes as a result of neurological changes. They can be an effective adjunct alongside physiotherapy techniques such as muscle strengthening and stretches, gait and balance retraining and reach and grasp strategies.
Definition :An orthosis is generally an individually designed or customised device, which is applied to the external part of the body to provide support and protection for that particular area of the body. It uses integrates biomechanical principles to realign joints and reduce pain. The design, materials and function of the orthosis are based on a patient assessment, including their medical history, biomechanical principles and the individual needs of the user.
Commonly prescribed orthoses include:
Foot Orthoses (FOs), for various foot, leg or postural problems; there is significant variety in terms of their design and manufacturing methods[1][2]
Ankle Orthoses (AOs) and Knee Orthoses (KOs), for joint protection, pain reduction or support after surgery
Ankle-Foot Orthoses (AFOs) and Knee-Ankle-Foot Orthoses (KAFOs), to improve mobility, support rehabilitation and biomechanical goals
Various upper-limb orthoses, to provide positional and functional support to the upper limb
Fracture orthoses, modern alternative to plaster or fibreglass casts
Spinal Orthoses, to correct or control spinal deformities and injuries and to provide immobilisation or support to spinal injuries
Advantages
Lower limb: Influence both swing and stance phase of gait[10].
Prevent or correct deformity and reduce pain during weight-bearing
Improve the efficiency of gait and maintain balance
Improve base of support / lateral support
Reduce need for compensation of ipsilateral and contralateral limbs and secondary pain
To facilitate training in skills
Upper limbs: Can be used after an injury to prevent further injury, or reduce pain by supporting an injured limb.
Prevent or correct deformity reducing pain and maximising function in reach and grasp tasks.
Improve the efficiency of reach and grasp tasks
Offload an injured limb to allow healing
Reduce need for compensation of ipsilateral and contralateral limbs and secondary pain
Improve role of the upper limb in maintaining balance
Spine: Stabilise spinal fractures to allow the patient to return to some normal activities (although they may be restricted) and protect the spinal cord
And It's Principles
Classification of Orthosis
Types Of Orthosis
Upper Limb Orthosis
Spinal Orthosis
Lower Limb Orthosis
Possible Complications
Loss of sensation (check skin regularly- risk of pressure areas)
Compensations in ipsilateral or contralateral limbs.
Impact on spasticity (is the patient utilising spasticity to allow some function in absence of muscle strength?)
Complications of casting at incorrect angle: Foot deformitie, increased knee flexion in stanc
An introduction to basic principles of orthotic devices and spectrum of applications. This is not an exhaustive list of all orthotics but a short and crisp presentation on the most commonly used orthotics intended for a wider audience of healthcare professionals
In this presentation, I have added evidence based practice ankle joints which are frequently used in orthotic treatment. Hope it reaches to every person out there seeking information regarding the same.

Courier management system project report.pdfKamal Acharya
It is now-a-days very important for the people to send or receive articles like imported furniture, electronic items, gifts, business goods and the like. People depend vastly on different transport systems which mostly use the manual way of receiving and delivering the articles. There is no way to track the articles till they are received and there is no way to let the customer know what happened in transit, once he booked some articles. In such a situation, we need a system which completely computerizes the cargo activities including time to time tracking of the articles sent. This need is fulfilled by Courier Management System software which is online software for the cargo management people that enables them to receive the goods from a source and send them to a required destination and track their status from time to time.
Immunizing Image Classifiers Against Localized Adversary Attacksgerogepatton
This paper addresses the vulnerability of deep learning models, particularly convolutional neural networks
(CNN)s, to adversarial attacks and presents a proactive training technique designed to counter them. We
introduce a novel volumization algorithm, which transforms 2D images into 3D volumetric representations.
When combined with 3D convolution and deep curriculum learning optimization (CLO), itsignificantly improves
the immunity of models against localized universal attacks by up to 40%. We evaluate our proposed approach
using contemporary CNN architectures and the modified Canadian Institute for Advanced Research (CIFAR-10
and CIFAR-100) and ImageNet Large Scale Visual Recognition Challenge (ILSVRC12) datasets, showcasing
accuracy improvements over previous techniques. The results indicate that the combination of the volumetric
input and curriculum learning holds significant promise for mitigating adversarial attacks without necessitating
adversary training.
CFD Simulation of By-pass Flow in a HRSG module by R&R Consult.pptxR&R Consult
CFD analysis is incredibly effective at solving mysteries and improving the performance of complex systems!
Here's a great example: At a large natural gas-fired power plant, where they use waste heat to generate steam and energy, they were puzzled that their boiler wasn't producing as much steam as expected.
R&R and Tetra Engineering Group Inc. were asked to solve the issue with reduced steam production.
An inspection had shown that a significant amount of hot flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes, where the heat was supposed to be transferred.
R&R Consult conducted a CFD analysis, which revealed that 6.3% of the flue gas was bypassing the boiler tubes without transferring heat. The analysis also showed that the flue gas was instead being directed along the sides of the boiler and between the modules that were supposed to capture the heat. This was the cause of the reduced performance.
Based on our results, Tetra Engineering installed covering plates to reduce the bypass flow. This improved the boiler's performance and increased electricity production.
It is always satisfying when we can help solve complex challenges like this. Do your systems also need a check-up or optimization? Give us a call!
Work done in cooperation with James Malloy and David Moelling from Tetra Engineering.

Lower limb orthosis
1. Lower Limb orthosis
Lower limb orthotics are external devices that are attached or applied to a lower limb to
improve function by providing support, controlling motion, reducing pain, correcting
deformities and preventing progression of deformities.
2. Ankle foot Orthosis
The AFO is used to treat various neuromuscular
(nerve and muscle) diseases and disorders and to also
provide functionality after an injury or a surgery.
AFOs aim is to eliminate the problems related to foot-
to-ground placement that affect foot clearance and
heel contact.
It is also prescribed to restore stability to the foot
during the swing and stance phases of walking, and to
compensate for thigh muscle weakness so that the
knee does not buckle due to weakness.
3. Ankle Foot Orthosis
Various neuromuscular conditions causing either flaccid, athetoid, or weakly spastic
paralysis necessitate the use of ankle foot orthosis
The orthosis will provide:
Mediolateral stability during stance phase to prevent unwanted movement in ankle
‘Toe pick up’ during swing phase to prevent a stumble caused by ‘toe drag’ during swing
phase
Near Normal Gait
Ankle Arthritis Muscle Dystrophy of Ankle
4. Metal AFO: Parts
• The metal AFO consists of a proximal calf band, two
uprights, ankle joints and an attachment to the shoe to
anchor the AFO
• The posterior metal portion of the calf band should be
1.5 to 3 inches wide in order to evenly distribute
pressure.
• The calf band should be 1 inch below the fibular neck
to prevent a compressive common peroneal nerve
palsy.
• Foot Attachments:
- Stirrup / Calliper
- Ankle joint / controls
5. Metal AFO: Stirrup & Ankle Joints
A stirrup is a U shaped metal piece permanently
attached to the shoe. Its two ends are bent upward
to articulate with the medial and lateral ankle
joints. The proximal stirrup attachment sites are
shaped to enforce the desired movements at the
ankle joint.
Ankle joint motion is controlled by pins or springs
inserted into channels. The pins are adjusted with a
screw driver to set the desired amount of plantar
flexion and dorsiflexion by means of STOPS or
ASSISTS. The spring is also adjusted with a screw
driver to provide the proper amount of tension
necessary to aid motion at the ankle joint.
6. KNEE ORTHOSIS
Knee orthosis benefits the patients who requires control of knee
but not foot and ankle
Used in treatment of patellofemoral conditions and control
forces that tend to produce abnormal angulation and instability
of knee
INDICATIONS
• Weakness of muscles controlling knee flexion
• Patellar instability
• Abduction / Adduction instability
• Hyperextension of knee
• Rotatory instability
7. KNEE
ORTHOSIS
DYNAMIC PATELLAR ORTHOSIS
Used for patellofemoral
disorders
Consists of
• Patella cut out
• 2 rubber straps
o Crescent shaped patellar
pad
o Elastic counterforce strap
Purpose – To prevent lateral
subluxation or dislocation of
patella
8. KNEE
ORTHOSIS
SUPRACONDYLAR KNEE ORTHOSIS
This benefits patients requiring more control as well
as firm mediolateral stabilization.
Custom made plastic orthosis, laminated over a
plastic model
Provides rigid support for knee hindering flexion
On sitting there is awkward protrusion of
supracondylar portion
This is rectified by Lerman multi ligamentous
knee control & Lennox-Hill derotation device
Both use elastic straps that encircles the leg and
thigh
Designed to provide rotational control
9. KNEE ORTHOSIS
SWEDISH KNEE CAGE
ORTHOSIS
For angular motion in
frontal and sagittal
plane
For mediolateral
stability
Restricts hyperextension
3 WAY KNEE
STABILIZER
Similar to Swedish
knee cage orthosis but
has more pivotable
strap attachments
EXTENSION KNEE
ORTHOSIS
It consists of two long
mental uprights pivoting
thigh and calf cuffs
To protect the knee against
mediolateral forces
10. KNEE ANKLE FOOT ORTHOSIS (KAFO)
KAFO extends from thigh to foot and may be
used to control motion and alignment of
knee and ankle or provide support to
femur/tibia or both
Indications:
• Muscle weakness
• Lower motor neuron lesions
• Loss of structural integrity
11. Functions
• To relieve weight partially or totally from the hip
• To relieve stress in leg
• Stabilization of knee
• To combine the functional units of AFO
• To exert hip control function in traumatic paraplegia
Double Upright KAFO
It consists of:
• 2 metal uprights
• Thigh band
• Mechanical knee joint
• Foot attachment
• Accessory pads and straps
12. Mechanical Knee Joint
• Since anatomical knee joint is polycentric mechanical
knee joints have a fixed axis and they cannot move
incomplete motion
• Some shifting of orthosis relative to time occurs during
flexion extension of knee, but this can be minimized by
proper placement of mechanical knee joint
Types of Mechanical Knee Joint
• Free-motion knee joint: Allows unrestricted flexion
and extension
• Offset knee joint: Axis of the knee joint is placed
posterior to the uprights
13. Types of Mechanical Knee Joints
• Centric knee joint lock: Axis of rotation is in the
center. For movement patient has to lift the lock up
• Drop lock knee joint: This lock is most commonly
used knee lock to control flexion
• UCLA: Uses a quadrilateral socket and set back
joints used to prevent buckling of knee
• Spring loaded pull rod: Given to the patient who is
capable of walking a free knee but who may wish
to lock joint occasionally
14. Types of Mechanical Knee Joint
• Swiss lock: Used in patients where upper
extremity is also paralyzed and patient is unable
to carry out locking and unlocking
• Pawl lock: Easier to release when a flexion force
develop at knee
• Bail: Semicircular level placed unlocks both sides
simultaneously and allows flexion by a manual
upward force or when bail is at range of choice
15. Supracondylar KAFO
• Consists of moulded plastic KAFO to hunged or solid supra-condylar shell is
attached
• Prevents excessive hyper extension of knee
16. Hip Orthosis
The most common function of such an
orthoses is to resist femoral adduction
produced by the mildly spastic
adductor musculature of individuals
with cerebral palsy.
HO is also used for post-operative or
post-injury protection following
arthroscopic hip repairs, total hip
revisions, or other hip joint surgeries;
Injuries or problems that can benefit
from range-of-motion control
17. Hip Orthosis
The Hip Abduction Orthosis is affective at
resisting adduction and excessive flexion.
The joint features easy to adjust flexion and
extension stops.
Parts
Pelvic Band
Hip Joints
Thigh Bands
18. Hip Knee Ankle Foot Orthosis
(HKAFO)
Hip joint and pelvic band attached to the lateral upright of a KAFO
converts it to a HKAFO
A HKAFO provides additional repair and support for disorders
involving
Hip flexion/extension instability
Hip abduction weakness
Hip rotation instability
19. HKAFO Parts
Pelvic Band
Hip joints and locks
Ischial band
Uprights
Thigh band
Knee cap and knee joint
Calf band
Ankle joint
Ankle stirrup
20. Pelvic Bands
To enable the hip joint to accomplish its function of motion control
its upper arm must be stabilized by attachment by intimate contact
with the pelvis
The types of pelvic bands utilized depends upon the degree of control
required and whether one or both hip joints are involved
Types
Unilateral pelvic band
Bilateral pelvic band
22. Hip Joints and Locks
Single axis hip joint
Permitting flexion and extension and include and
adjustable stop to limit hyperextension.
By the nature of their design these joints also resist
abduction ,adduction and rotation.
The flexion extension capacity can be restricted by
including a pawl or a drop lock similar to that used
for a knee joint.
Two position hip locks
Provide locking for full extension and 90° hip flexion,
are of limited use for children which have difficulty in
maintaining the sitting position.
23. Double axis hip joint
If there is no need to block both
abduction and adduction a double axis
joint may be used.
The flexion extension axis must be free
or locked as required while the
adduction, abduction axis include
adjustable stops to place limit on these
motions as needed.
Hip Joints and Locks
