Similarly, material of the calf and the sole is
replaced with that of other materials such as
Poly-lactic Acid, Poly propylene and Poly ethylene
With the connector remaining as CFRP and the
results are tabulated as shown

Conclusion
ABS and Poly-Lactic acid are the best suited for the
fabrication of AFO due to their low deformations and
equivalent stresses, printability, optimal cost and
stiffness.
