Transfemoral limb loss modestly increases the metabolic cost of optimal control simulations of walking
Background In transtibial limb loss, computer simulations suggest that the maintenance of muscle strength between pre- and post-limb loss can maintain the pre-limb loss metabolic cost. These results are consistent with comparable costs found experimentally in select cases of high functioning militar...
