Fore-Aft Asymmetry Improves the Stability of Trotting in the Transverse Plane: A Modeling Study

Quadrupedal mammals have fore-aft asymmetry in their body structure, which affects their walking and running dynamics. However, the effects of asymmetry, particularly in the transverse plane, remain largely unclear. In this study, we examined the effects of fore-aft asymmetry on quadrupedal trotting...
