Default Pressure plate data on top of orthoses

Podiatry Arena members do not see these ads
All,

Your help please. Does anyone have the kind of data depicted in the attached image from in-shoe pressure measurement on top of an orthotic? i.e. showing discreet pressures per unit area. Walking and running preferrably. Thanks in advance for any help you may offer. If you can help me out here please contact me privately at:

Simon - what are you wanting if for. I have lots of Pedar and F-scan without and without foot orthoses, but we analyse the data based on specific masked areas than that the pressure number for each sensor (though should be able to get that data)

Thanks Craig. Just looking for ball park figures to load into an FEA model.

Kevin,
Those interested in the topic should try a wikipedia journey:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Finite_element_analysis

Click on the links and before you know it hours and even days will have passed by.

Kevin wrote a nice little bit on this in his article entitled:emerging concepts in podiatirc biomechanics
http://www.podiatrytoday.com/article/6436

Any luck with that data Craig?

Simon:

Looking forward to your lecture on FEA in prescription foot orthoses at the 2007 PFOLA Meeting in San Diego in November. Even though it is 7 months in the future, I'm already starting to get my interest whetted for your lecture! It's about time that someone started the ball rolling on this important and clinically relevant subject!

BTW, Simon, make sure you include "Spooner's ZOOS" in the lecture so you can get full credit for this concept also. :p
