Hip extensor mechanics and the evolution of walking and climbing capabilities in humans, apes, and fossil hominins

The evolutionary emergence of humans’ remarkably economical walking gait remains a focus of research and debate, but experimentally validated approaches linking locomotor capability to postcranial anatomy are limited. In this study, we integrated 3D morphometrics of hominoid pelvic shape with experi...
