Examining the accuracy of trackways for predicting gait selection and speed of locomotion
Abstract Background Using Froude numbers (Fr) and relative stride length (stride length: hip height), trackways have been widely used to determine the speed and gait of an animal. This approach, however, is limited by the ability to estimate hip height accurately and by the lack of information relat...
