The exoskeleton is aimed at helping workers who carry heavy loads, by supporting their posture and reducing stress in their knees which would prevent future injuries. However, most of the previous passive designs are insufficient in a way that they are bulky. Therefore, this study is focused on achieving lightweight passive exoskeleton. Topology optimization has been carried out to reach this goal. The results are validated using finite elements methods, in ANSYS environment. © 2018 Elsevier B.V., All rights reserved.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessBook Part10.1007/978-3-030-01887-0_972-s2.0-85055053697
