Head-bobbing is the fore–aft movement of the head relative to the body during terrestrial locomotion in birds. It is considered to be a behaviour that helps to stabilize images on the retina during locomotion, yet some studies have suggested biomec

a b s t r a c t Widely accepted relationships between gaits (footfall patterns) and center of mass mechanics have been formulated from observations for cursorial mammals. However, sparse data on smaller or more general- ized forms suggest a fundament

Animals that are specialized for a particular habitat or mode of locomotion often demonstrate locomotor efficiency in a focal environment when compared to a generalist species. However, measurements of these focal habitats or behaviors are often diff

Summary Reasons for performing study: Gaited horses employ 4-beat stepping (singlefoot) gaits that extend into speeds typical of trots. Ground reaction force (GRF) patterns of these specialised gaits have not been reported; therefore, appraisal of th

Whereas humans and certain birds experience an abrupt change in locomotor dynamics when shifting from walks to runs, a smooth walk‐run transition characterizes many grounddwelling birds. This study defines the biomechanical distinction between walk

Objective—To evaluate the locomotor mechanics of the tölt in Icelandic horses. Animals—10 adult Icelandic horses with no history of lameness. Procedures—Force platform data were captured for 27 trials for horses ridden at a tölt in a lateral

Independent maturation of gait (Hildebrand) and whole body mechanics (Cavagna et al.) traditions in locomotor analyses has led to conflicting terminology. Re-evaluation of these traditions yields three primary insights. First, walking and running sho

SUMMARYAlligator hindlimbs show high torsional loads during terrestrial locomotion, in sharp contrast to the bending or axial compressive loads that predominate in animals that use parasagittal limb movements. The present study integrates new data on

SUMMARYEffects of substrate diameter on locomotor biodynamics were studied in the gray short-tailed opossum (Monodelphis domestica). Two horizontal substrates were used: a flat `terrestrial' trackway with a force platform integrated into the surface
