The Research of Maneuverability Modeling and Environmental Monitoring Based on a Robotic Dolphin by Zhibin Xue, Liangliang Li, Yixiao Song

“…In this study, the C-turning, pitching, and flapping propulsion of a robotic dolphin during locomotion were explored. Considering the swimming action required of a three-dimensional (3D) robotic dolphin in the ocean, we propose a maneuverability model that can be applied to the flapping motion to provide precise and stable movements and function as the driving role in locomotion. …”

Minimal age-related variation in bipedal behavior in Sapajus by Kristin A. Wright, Dorothy M. Fragaszy

“…Bipedal postures were used predominantly during feeding and foraging, most often in arboreal settings, and most often with their prehensile tail grasping, or in contact with, the substrate. Bipedal locomotion occurred most often on terrestrial substrates and comprised only 3% of all records of bipedal behavior.…”

Is Freezing of Gait in Parkinson's Disease a Result of Multiple Gait Impairments? Implications for Treatment by Meir Plotnik, Nir Giladi, Jeffrey M. Hausdorff

“…We propose distinct categories of interventions and describe examples of existing work that support this idea: (a) interventions which aim to maintain a good level of locomotion control especially with respect to aspects related to FOG; (b) those that aim at avoiding FOG “triggers”; and (c) those that merely aim to escape from FOG once it occurs. …”

Sarcopenia and Its Implications for Metabolic Health by Gary R. Hunter, Harshvardhan Singh, Stephen J. Carter, David R. Bryan, Gordon Fisher

“…Sarcopenia not only affects the ability to lead an active lifestyle but also contributes to increased obesity, reduced quality of life, osteoporosis, and metabolic health, in part due to reduced locomotion economy and ease. On the other hand, increased obesity, decreased quality of life, and reduced metabolic health also contribute to sarcopenia. …”
