DOI: 10.1016/j.clinph.2021.08.016
Abstract: Unperturbed human locomotion presumably results from feedforward shifts in stable body equilibrium in the environment, thus avoiding falling and subsequent catching considered in alternative theories of locomotion. Such shifts are achieved by relocation of the… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1361-6552/ab1687
Abstract: Elementary formulas for gravitational potential energy, heat capacity, and Newton’s law of cooling are used to measure and compare the efficiencies of a person walking uphill and downhill. Good agreement is found for their ratio… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/lra.2021.3136240
Abstract: Reproducing the mechanisms of human locomotion is a hard challenge. Assistive wearable devices in this context need to be lightweight, portable, and to adapt to the wearer’s walking pattern. Aiming to combine the aforementioned features,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1109/tnsre.2018.2879570
Abstract: Powered knee and ankle prostheses can perform a limited number of discrete ambulation tasks. This is largely due to their control architecture, which uses a finite-state machine to select among a set of task-specific controllers.… read more here.

DOI: 10.1371/journal.pone.0183990
Abstract: Assessment methods in human locomotion often involve the description of normalised graphical profiles and/or the extraction of discrete variables. Whilst useful, these approaches may not represent the full complexity of gait data. Multivariate statistical methods,… read more here.
