The exoskeleton expansion: improving walking and running economy

GS Sawicki, ON Beck, I Kang, AJ Young - Journal of neuroengineering and …, 2020 - Springer
Since the early 2000s, researchers have been trying to develop lower-limb exoskeletons
that augment human mobility by reducing the metabolic cost of walking and running versus …

Sensitivity of biomechanical outcomes to independent variations of hindfoot and forefoot stiffness in foot prostheses

PG Adamczyk, M Roland, ME Hahn - Human movement science, 2017 - Elsevier
Many studies have reported the effects of different foot prostheses on gait, but most results
cannot be generalized because the prostheses' properties are seldom reported. We varied …
