Establishing the contribution of the muscle-tendon interaction to the metabolic cost of running using a blended experimental and computational approach KU Leuven
Although humans have been running bipedally for thousands of years, there is still substantial variability in the way we run, i.e. our preferred running pattern. Moreover, also the metabolic energy we consume to run at a certain, submaximal velocity varies between runners. Despite the large body of running related research, our understanding on the underlying mechanisms explaining the variability in preferred running pattern and/or the ...
