Interlimb coordination during step-to-step transition and gait performance
ASP Sousa, JMRS Tavares - Journal of motor behavior, 2015 - Taylor & Francis
Most energy spent in walking is due to step-to-step transitions. During this phase, the
interlimb coordination assumes a crucial role to meet the demands of postural and …

Method for evoking a trip-like response using a treadmill-based perturbation during locomotion
Because trip-related falls account for a significant proportion of falls by patients with
amputations and older adults, the ability to repeatedly and reliably simulate a trip or evoke a …

Effects of walking speed on gait stability and interlimb coordination in younger and older adults
Many falls in older adults occur during walking following trips. Following a trip, older adults
take longer than younger adults to recover steady-state walking. Although faster gait speed …
