Implications of Pendulum Motion• Basic period of a pendulum

• Inertias of point and distributed masses

• For 0.75 m leg length,

Walking Froude Number• Froude number is ratio between inertial and

gravitational forces• Primary application is boat speed (transition

between displacement and planing motion)• Walking Froude number

• Feet leave the ground at Fr=1• Walk-run transition typically occurs ~Fr=0.5
