I have designed a system for load-bearing from a damaged leg, as shown in the figure. Upon descent, it activated an active mechanism to prevent direct contact between the leg and the ground. I want to transfer the force reaction to the thigh. To what extent can the muscles in this area withstand pressure? Is there a recommendation for transferring these forces to the hip? Will implementing this design be beneficial?
