Abstract: Locomotion in humans is defined as bipedal progression through stages of a gait cycle to move from one place to another while maintaining balance and posture. Locomotion can be categorized in temporal phases (initiation, actual… read more here.

Abstract: ABSTRACT Animal locomotion is driven by underlying axial and appendicular musculature. In order for locomotion to be effective, these muscles must be able to rapidly respond to changes in environmental and physiological demands. Although virtually… read more here.
