3.1 Torque variations across the subjects define swing and stance gait phases
Joint torques during stance and swing phases were measured using inverse
dynamic analysis to understand how gait can be attained [47] at different phases.
Subjects were divided into groups with respect to weights. Group I was categorized
in to subjects with 60–70 kg, Group II was categorized in to subject with 70–80 kg,
Group III was categorized into subjects with 80–90 kg. Average torque amplitude
of subjects was analysed and compared during swing (Figure 2A) and stance
(Figure 2B) phases.

Torque variations during gait. (A) Average torque amplitude of joints with different weight groups during
swing. (B) Average torque amplitude of joints with different weight groups during stance. RH, right hip; RK,
right knee; RA, right ankle; LS, left shoulder; LE, left elbow; LW, left wrist; LH, left hip; LK, left knee; RS,
right shoulder; RE, right elbow; RW, right wrist and 1–3 are joint positions.

Torque amplitude changes across hip and ankle of male and female subjects. Hip and ankle joints show
significant changes allowing classification of male and female subjects. RH, right hip; LH, left hip; RA, right
ankle; LA, left ankle.
