2. Lower-limb walking pattern - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lower-limb_walking_pattern

   It described a total lower-limb pattern occurring at the hip, knee, and ankle during stance. [4] According to this principle, the basic function of the lower limbs during stance phase is to resistant collapse; and to prevent this collapse, vertical support of the body requires net extensor activity at the hip, knee, and ankle joints.

7. Gait deviations - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gait_deviations

   The sole reliance on the hip joint to control the entire prosthetic limb makes fine-tuning foot placement difficult. Lowering the knee joint height was found to effectively increase the hip joint's lever arm, thereby increasing precision control of the hip joint to improve gait symmetry and increase running velocity by 26% on average.
