Capítulo 8 – Conclusões e Trabalho futuro
8.2 Trabalhos Futuros
De seguida, e tendo em vista o melhoramento do trabalho, abordar-se-ão os trabalhos futuros:
• Ambiciona-se estudar outras faixas etárias, por exemplo, idades inferiores e superiores, e/ou um número maior de elementos presentes na amostra.
• Pretende-se realizar os devidos aperfeiçoamentos quanto à modelação da ortótese em Inventor usando a distribuição de pressões plantares.
• Testar a possibilidade de utilização de gel de nanocelulose com memória de forma nas zonas de maior pressão plantar.
• Completar a caracterização do gel de nanocelulose obtido, através de técnicas de difração de Raios-X, FTIR, ensaios de dureza, determinação de viscosidade, ensaios de resiliências e resistência ao rasgo.
• Efetuar um novo protótipo, com os tipos de gel mais adequados (II e IV) e planear qual o material mais adequado para o revestimento do mesmo.
• Testar a ortótese obtida nas crianças presentes na amostra, bem como investigar qual a influência do seu uso na postura e bem-estar na realização das tarefas diárias.
