Quadrupeds, like most bipeds, tend to walk with an even left/right footfall timing. However, the phasing between hind and forelimbs shows considerable variation. Here, we account for this variation by modeling and explaining the influence of hind-for... Read More about Work minimization accounts for footfall phasing in slow quadrupedal gaits.
