Effect of step frequency on leg stiffness during running in unilateral transfemoral amputees

Spring-like leg behavior is a general feature of mammalian bouncing gaits, such as running and hopping. Although increases in step frequency at a given running speed are known to increase the stiffness of the leg spring (k(leg)) in non-amputees, little is known about stiffness regulation in unilater...
