Leg compliance is required to explain the ground reaction force patterns and speed ranges in different gaits

Ali Tehrani Safa, Tirthabir Biswas A, Arun Ramakrishnan, Vikas Bhandawat

This paper shows that compliant legs are essential for explaining gait patterns and speed ranges in locomotion, challenging the use of stiff legs for walking models.
