This study trains older adults to improve mediolateral foot placement control using restricted shoes, resulting in reduced foot placement errors and increased gait stability.

The paper shows that phase-dependent stability measures in a compass walker model do not predict gait robustness or fall risk.

This study models how hip flexion and retraction affect energy cost in walking at different speeds, finding that asymmetric hip actuation reduces metabolic cost of transport by up to 6% at medium speeds.

This study examines how external lateral stabilization affects ankle moment control during walking, finding reduced contribution of ankle moments to stability without changing foot placement error or center-of-pressure shift.

This study investigates whether ankle push-off corrects for errors in anterior-posterior foot placement during steady-state walking, finding a correlation between push-off torque and foot placement error.

This study reviews and analyzes the effect of external lateral stabilization on energy cost during walking, finding small reductions in energy cost under specific conditions.

This study investigates whether constraining ankle moments during walking can improve foot placement control, finding initial deterioration followed by a non-significant trend toward improvement after prolonged exposure.
