    Legged locomotion is the dominant form of terrestrial locomotion, the movement on land. The motion of limbs is quantified by the kinematics of the limb itself (intralimb kinematics) and the coordination between limbs (interlimb kinematics). [1] [2] Figure 1. Classifying stance and swing transitions of the front right (red) and left (blue) legs ...

    Adaptations for cursorial locomotion in terrestrial vertebrates include: Increased stride length by: Increased limb bone length; Adoption of digitigrade or unguligrade stance; Loss of clavicle in mammals, which allows the scapula to move forwards and backwards with the limb and thereby increase stride length. Increased spinal flexion during ...

  9. Walking - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walking

    During forward motion, the leg that leaves the ground swings forward from the hip. This sweep is the first pendulum. Then the leg strikes the ground with the heel and rolls through to the toe in a motion described as an inverted pendulum. The motion of the two legs is coordinated so that one foot or the other is always in contact with the ground.
