The study of anuran locomotion and biomechanics encompasses a multifaceted exploration of the mechanical, neural, and evolutionary attributes that underpin jumping, landing and other movement ...

Scientists found parallels between the neural circuitry that guides locomotion in sea slugs and in more complex animals like mammals. Hundreds of millions of years before the evolution of animals with ...

Researchers questioned if coordinated group movements by animals moving through a fluid could reduce the energy cost of locomotion. By combining biomechanics and bioenergetics the researchers found ...

Insect-scale legged robots have become increasingly capable in recent years but are still severely limited in terms of onboard resources for computation and power. On the other hand, simple models for ...
