Isolating the energetic and mechanical consequences of imposed reductions in ankle and knee flexion during gait
Abstract Background Weakness of ankle and knee musculature following injury or disorder results in reduced joint motion associated with metabolically expensive gait compensations to enable limb support and advancement. However, neuromechanical coupling between the ankle and knee make it difficult to...
