The research aimed to investigate how pelvic transverse rotations vary across different gaits using a unified modeling approach.
Soccer players performed walking, jogging, running, and sprinting while an inertial measurement unit recorded movement data.
Minimal limit cycle modeling captured control mechanisms of the pelvis across all gait types.
Analysis focused on variations in linear and nonlinear stiffness coefficients during different gaits.
A unified model explained variation in gaits through changes in coefficients rather than different control strategies.
Model fit improved significantly from ∼63% in walking to ∼93% in sprinting, indicating effective parameter modulation.
Gait-specific adaptations suggested preservation of momentum and energy recycling mechanisms.
