  Used a VICON motion capture system, in conjunction with AMTI force plates, in order to analyze the effect of an ankle prosthesis on an animal model, as compared to the natural gait of a biologically intact animal. Compiled a full neuromuscular model of distal hindlimb biomechanics during level walking over different terrains.
