A novel Movement Amplification environment reveals effects of controlling lateral centre of mass motion on gait stability and metabolic cost
During human walking, the centre of mass (COM) laterally oscillates, regularly transitioning its position above the two alternating support limbs. To maintain upright forward-directed walking, lateral COM excursion should remain within the base of support, on average. As necessary, humans can modify...
