Velocity-Based Terrain Coefficients for Time-Based Models of Human Movement

Velocity-Based Terrain Coefficients for Time-Based Models of Human Movement

Few studies have calculated the relative difficulty of walking across different types of terrain (e.g. grass, asphalt, loose sand, and so on). Nonetheless, these relative values, called terrain coefficients, are integral, alongside slope, for generating computer models of human movement, whether for...
