Human Locomotion in Hypogravity: From Basic Research to Clinical Applications

Human Locomotion in Hypogravity: From Basic Research to Clinical Applications

We have considerable knowledge about the mechanisms underlying compensation of Earth gravity during locomotion, a knowledge obtained from physiological, biomechanical, modeling, developmental, comparative, and paleoanthropological studies. By contrast, we know much less about locomotion and movement...
