Walk-run classification of symmetrical gaits in the horse: a multidimensional approach
Journal Article
Starke, S. D., Robilliard, J. J., Weller, R., Wilson, A. M., & Pfau, T. Walk-run classification of symmetrical gaits in the horse: a multidimensional approach. https://doi.org/10.1098/rsif.2008.0238

Walking and running are two mechanisms for minimizing energy expenditure during terrestrial locomotion. Duty factor, dimensionless speed, existence of an aerial phase, percentage recovery (PR) or phase shift of mechanical energy and shape of the vert...
