Faculty of Engineering / University of Kerbala has discussed the M.A thesis which is entitled Design, Analysis and manufacturing of an Ankle Foot Orthosis using a New- reinforced Composite Materials”.
The study, presented by Maryam Ibrahim aims at designing and manufacturing an ankle support for patients suffering from foot drop disease or muscle weakness in the ankle area, using composite materials.
The study recommends adopting a specific arrangement of composite materials in manufacturing process after practical experiments achieved better results than using materials available in peripheral centers.
