摘要: A combined experimental and numerical approach is used to investigate the interaction phenomena occurring between foot footwear during heel strike phase of gait. Two force platforms are utilised evaluate ground reaction forces a subject in bare shod walking. The obtained from tests assumed as loading conditions for analyses using three dimensional models region running shoe. pad region, fat skin tissues, described by visco-hyperelastic fibre-reinforced hyperelastic formulations respectively bone linear orthotropic formulation. Different elastomeric foams considered with regard outsole, midsole insole layers. mechanical properties hyperfoam evaluation behaviour tissues at performed considering different combinations materials Results allow definition influence material characteristics on response particular showing compressive stress differentiation conditions.
