Efficiency and Stability of Step-To Gait in Slow Walking [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Human Neuroscience, 2022
As humans, we constantly change our movement strategies to adapt to changes in physical functions and the external environment. We have to walk very slowly in situations with a high risk of falling, such as walking on slippery ice, carrying an ...

Stepping Strategies for Regulating Gait Adaptability and Stability

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2013
Besides a stable gait pattern, gait in daily life requires the capability to adapt this pattern in response to environmental conditions. The purpose of this study was to elucidate the anticipatory strategies used by able-bodied people to attain an adaptive gait pattern, and how these strategies interact with strategies used to maintain gait stability ...

The impact of obesity on gait stability in older adults [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biomechanics, 2020
Obesity increases fall risk, and fall-related injuries in older adults. While prior work suggests obesity influences postural stability during standing, little is known about how obesity affects walking stability. Therefore, this study compared walking stability in older adults with and without obesity.

Stability in skipping gaits [PDF]

open access: yesRoyal Society Open Science, 2016
As an alternative to walking and running, humans are able to skip. However, adult humans avoid it. This fact seems to be related to the higher energetic costs associated with skipping. Still, children, some birds, lemurs and lizards use skipping gaits during daily locomotion.

Fore-Aft Asymmetry Improves the Stability of Trotting in the Transverse Plane: A Modeling Study

open access: yesFrontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
Quadrupedal mammals have fore-aft asymmetry in their body structure, which affects their walking and running dynamics. However, the effects of asymmetry, particularly in the transverse plane, remain largely unclear. In this study, we examined the effects

Research on obstacle climbing gait structure design and gait control of hexapod wall climbing robot based on STM32F103 core controller

open access: yesMechanics & Industry, 2023
The hexapod wall climbing robots have the advantages of traversing complex wall surfaces. To traverse complex environments autonomously, it must possess the capability to select gait parameters and paths appropriate for the wall surface.
