Leg compliance is required to explain the ground reaction force patterns and speed ranges in different gaits

2024-09-24

Abstract excerpt

Two simple models, vaulting over stiff legs and rebounding over compliant legs, are employed to describe the mechanics of legged locomotion. It is agreed that compliant legs are necessary for describing running and that legs are compliant while walking. Despite this agreement, stiff legs continue to be employed to model walking under the assumption that the compliance of the leg during walking is high enough to be...
