Performing Whole-Body Simulations of Gait with 3-D, Dynamic Musculoskeletal Models

As walking is a basic activity, it is not surprising that the literature describing and analyzing human gait is prolific. Articles on walking appear regularly in newspapers, fitness magazines, medical research journals, technical publications, and the like. Most of these focus on the particular aspects of gait most interesting to the reader. Even sub-disciplines with relatively limited appeal have extensive bibliographies!
