... and reproduction in any medium provided that the original work is properly attributed. Summary: For every 1% increase in step length variability, there is a 1.1% increase in metabolic power. This suggests that step length variability contributes modestly to the cost of human walking. Energetics Step...

The findings from these behavioral adjustments hold broader implications for understanding fish performance under dynamic...

The inability to replenish energetic stores during these periods suggests insects should be constrained by pre...
