Assessing running stability: a systematic review of methods

Abstract Background Running stability is increasingly investigated in biomechanics and motor control research. However, the term is operationalized using diverse methods that may reflect different theoretical constructs, which complicates cross-study comparison and interpretation...

Effects of an actuated ankle exoskeleton on walking stability in healthy adults: a controlled laboratory study

Abstract Background Ankle exoskeletons are widely used to reduce the metabolic cost of walking, yet their effects on walking stability during unperturbed gait remain insufficiently understood. Walking stability can be characterized using complementary measures that capture stride...
