Brief communication: Three‐dimensional motion analysis of hindlimb during brachiation in a white‐handed gibbon ( Hylobates lar )
In brachiating gibbons, it is thought that there is little movement in the hindlimb joints and that lateral body movement is quite limited. These hypotheses are based on naked‐eye observations, and no quantitative motion analyses of the hindlimbs have been reported. This study quantitatively describes the three‐dimensional movements of the lower trunk and distal thigh during continuous‐contact brachiation in a white‐handed gibbon ( Hylobates lar …
Functional Analysis of the Thigh Muscles during Locomotion in the Garnet Galago (Galago garnetti)
This study examined the locomotor behavior of the Galago garnetti, a prosimian. The recruitment patterns of the vastus lateralis (VL) and biceps femoris (BF) were investigated, and the excursion patterns of the hip, knee, and ankle joints were estimated, during quadrupedal horizontal walking, vertical climbing, and vertical descending on poles. In horizontal walking, the period of VL muscle activity almost coincided with that of increasing knee j…
