A Finite Element Analysis of a Human Foot Model to Simulate Neutral Standing on Ground

The objective of the paper is to perform finite element analysis of a human foot model to study the dynamic behavior and the internal loading conditions during neutral standing on the planar ground. The foot structure is simulated to assist in the design of an instrumented shoe insole. Finite elemen...
