DANSK DS/ISO 15032 PDF

This International Standard specifies test methods for components and assemblies of hip disarticulation prostheses which are arranged at hip and thigh level. It does not apply to other components of lower limb prostheses for which test methods are given in ISO 10328. This International Standard specifies procedures for simplified static and cyclic strength tests in which the anteroposterior (A-P) and medio-lateral (M-L) components of loading are produced in separate tests by the application of test forces in two different test planes. The components of loading produced in the test sample relate to the peak values of the components of loading which normally occur at different instants during the stance phase of walking.
