Computational model reveals how inertial effects impact hemodynamics during walking, highlighting cardiovascular responses in different phases.

The model shows that inertial effects increase pressure augmentation during walking based on heart and step rates.
During synthetic walking, a low-frequency 'beating' in pressure waveforms occurs when step rate exceeds heart rate.
Validation tests reveal the model's ability to capture accurate beat-wise changes in vascular pressure during human walking.
Adding hydrodynamic pressure from body acceleration significantly improves waveform similarity in hemodynamic simulations.

Rosato et al. (2025) studied this question.
