| Abstract: |
This chapter presents the analysis of walking and running in two separate sections. In each section, the statio-temporal and kinematic characteristics of each movement are presented. This is followed by the analysis of ground reaction forces and plantar pressure characteristics. Finally, the muscle activity patterns in various phases of each movement are presented.
