Fig. 4. Torque generated by isolated joints of representative Eremopus and
Leiobunum during simulated locomotor cycles. Arrows denote the mean
limits of joint excursion measured in walking animals. (A-C) Different
internal fluid pressures. (D) Two work loops generated by
tibiabasitarsus of Leiobunum at 0 kPa representing typical
variation between frequencies and individuals. The heavy line represents the
approximation of torque used in the calculation of elastic recoil to forward
motion. Values of resilience (%) are shown next to the corresponding work
loop.
