Development of bipedal and quadrupedal locomotion in humans from a dynamical systems perspective [PDF]
, 2012 The first phase in the development 0f locomotion, pr,öary variability would occur in normal fetuses and infants, and those with Uner Tan syndrome. The neural networks for quadrupedal locomotion have apparently been transmitted epigenetically through many

Surprising simplicity in the modeling of dynamic granular intrusion
, 2021 Granular intrusions, such as dynamic impact or wheel locomotion, are complex multiphase phenomena where the grains exhibit solid-like and fluid-like characteristics together with an ejected gas-like phase.

Ecological Burden of Modern Surgery: An Analysis of Total Knee Replacement’s Life Cycle
Arthroplasty Today, 2023 Background: It is estimated that surgical procedures account for 20%-30% of the greenhouse gases emissions from health-care systems. Total knee replacements (TKR) are one of the most frequently performed procedures in orthopaedics.
