Leg stiffness
- The influence of sagittal trunk lean on uneven running mechanics
Summary: Trunk posture- and step-specific adjustments in global and local running mechanics are influenced by the anticipation of changes to running pattern, probably reflecting the utilization of task-dependent strategies during perturbed running.
- Global dynamics of bipedal macaques during grounded and aerial running
Editors' Choice: Macaques prefer grounded running to walking when they move on two legs because of leg compliance.
- Biomechanics and energetics of running on uneven terrain
Summary: Running on uneven terrain leads to decreased positive ankle work and increased metabolic energy expenditure.
