Know about the book -

Design and Operation of Human Locomotion Systems is written by Marco Cecarelli and published by Academic Press. It's available with International Standard Book Number or ISBN identification 0128156597 (ISBN 10) and 9780128156599 (ISBN 13).

Design and Operation of Locomotion Systems examines recent advances in locomotion systems with multidisciplinary viewpoints, including mechanical design, biomechanics, control and computer science. In particular, the book addresses the specifications and requirements needed to achieve the proper design of locomotion systems. The book provides insights on the gait analysis of humans by considering image capture systems. It also studies human locomotion from a rehabilitation viewpoint and outlines the design and operation of exoskeletons, both for rehabilitation and human performance enhancement tasks. Additionally, the book content ranges from fundamental theory and mathematical formulations, to practical implementations and experimental testing procedures.
