Abstract
► Linear leg elasticity can be assumed for running, not so for walking. ► Simulations incorporating the bipedal spring-mass model are successful for moderate walking and medium running speeds. ► Model predictions overestimate center of mass motion and ground reaction forces. ► Model predictions underestimate contact time.
