Development and Evaluation of a Powered Artificial Gastrocnemius for Transtibial Amputee Gait

Table 8

Final cost values for the morphological parameter optimization. The COT values were the simulated metabolic cost of transport values, as computed by the musculoskeletal model, when given the final optimized parameter set and biological nonamputee data as input.

Cost value	S1	S2	S3	S4	S5	S6
	0.71	0.76	0.80	0.85	0.80	0.80
COT	0.360	0.324	0.246	0.330	0.301	0.301
