Abstract: The theory that the sensorimotor system minimizes energetic cost during locomotion has long been supported by both computational models and empirical studies. However, it has yet to be determined if the behavior to which people… read more here.

Abstract: Consumer metabolism controls the energy uptake from the environment and its allocation to biomass production. In natural ecosystems, available energy in food often fails to predict biomass production which is also (co)limited by the relative… read more here.

DOI: 10.1177/15459683231164788
Abstract: Background The decision of which arm to use to achieve a goal depends on energetic costs and performance abilities of each arm. Following a stroke, there is a reduction in the use of the more-impaired… read more here.

DOI: 10.3233/nre-182498
Abstract: BACKGROUND The energetic cost of walking (Cw) is elevated in persons with multiple sclerosis (MS). This may be explained by spasticity and spatiotemporal parameters of gait. OBJECTIVE To examine the associations among Cw, spasticity of… read more here.
