“…It helps in providing cushioning and stability to the feet. The more cushioned the midsole, the less stability it provides to the feet; therefore, a balance between cushioning and stability to the feet is vital in a shoe" (Khan, Jacobs & Ashbaugh 2013) -"Midsole: The part of the shoe between the outsole and where the foot rests, usually cushioned."

The architecture of contemporary footwear is the result of a long history of footwear development. In this history, part of the argumentation behind the architecture has been lost, causing footwear developers to make decisions based on habits and badly underpinned assumptions. New insights on the negative influence of most conventional footwear on human (foot) health and the design freedom that arises from modern manufacturing techniques, create the urge to reconsider the common way of developing. By reverse architecting conventional footwear, this paper derives an A3 Architecture Overview of conventional footwear. In the future this overview should provide a tool for enabling product evolution towards healthy footwear, by allowing developers to consciously and purposefully deviate from ‘the standard architecture’ while taking into account the consequences of design decisions they make. The approach that is described in this paper is also applicable to the development of architecture overviews for other product families.

Tarsal tunnel syndrome: still more opinions than evidence. Status of the art

et al. 2017

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Tarsal tunnel syndrome is an entrapment neuropathy of the posterior tibial nerve or its terminal branches within its fibro-osseous tunnel beneath the flexor retinaculum on the medial side of the ankle. The condition is frequently underdiagnosed leading to controversies regarding its epidemiology and to an intense debate in the literature. With the advent of nerve imaging techniques, the diagnostic confirmation and the etiological identification have become more accurate. However, management of this entrapment neuropathy remains challenging because of many intervention strategies but limited robust evidence. Uncertainties still exist about the best conservative treatment, timing of surgical intervention, and best surgical approach. In the attempt to clarify these aspects and to provide the reader some understanding of the status of the art, we have reviewed the published literature on this controversial condition.
