The biomechanics and energetics of human running using an elastic knee exoskeleton

The biomechanics and energetics of human running using an elastic knee exoskeleton

While the effects of series compliance on running biomechanics are well documented, the effects of parallel compliance are known only for the simpler case of hopping. As many practical exoskeletal and orthotic designs act in parallel with the leg, it is desirable to understand the effects of such an...
