However, testing of the largermotors by these students was severely limited due to the moving of the new School ofEngineering to new facilities (including all new laboratories) during the summer of 2019. Besides the changing of student team members from the original group, this movebrought additional challenges to the project since the simulator and all the associated equipmenthad to be disassembled and boxed up for the relocation to the new lab space. But the move hasrecently been completed, and now a new multidisciplinary team of five

The architecture students are negotiating through designchoices from the perspective of being an engineer. The instructional method is the design studioformat which is variant of the laboratory classroom [34]. The studio environment embraces theexploration of alternative structural solutions.

The completed prosthetic limb model was then imported into ANSYS for finite elementanalysis (FEA) of stress and deformation under static load conditions similar to those applied inreal life. A separate buckling analysis was performed on the pylon model in ANSYS. Once theFEA results demonstrated the stress and deformation were within acceptable limits, a prototypewas built. The built prototype was then subjected to static load testing in the laboratory to ensurethe prosthetic limb could sustain the weight of the client. The prototype, including the designedfoot and pylon, was then tested on the client. Figure 2 shows the client fitted with thepreliminary prosthetic limb standing on the force
