Forward dynamic simulation of Japanese macaque bipedal locomotion demonstrates better energetic economy in a virtualised plantigrade posture
Oku, Ide and Ogihara use forward dynamic simulation to virtually manipulate the foot posture of the Japanese macaque from a digitigrade to plantigrade posture for bipedal locomotion. This postural shift results in greater energetic economy despite the macaque not having anatomy adapted for bipedal m...
