Stochastic optimal control simulations of walking: potential and perspective

2026-03-20

Abstract excerpt

Human walking is intrinsically variable. For example, there is considerable stride to stride variability even when walking speed is constant. This variability is due to uncertainty in the sensorimotor system and the environment, and is shaped by both musculoskeletal dynamics (e.g. joint stiffness and damping originating from muscles) and the control strategy used to mitigate the effects of uncertainty. Yet, insigh...
