Swing-leg trajectory of running guinea fowl suggests task-level priority of force regulation rather than disturbance rejection.
To achieve robust and stable legged locomotion in uneven terrain, animals must effectively coordinate limb swing and stance phases, which involve distinct yet coupled dynamics. Recent theoretical studies have highlighted the critical influence of swing-leg trajectory on stability, disturbance reject...
