Coupling length computations for the hypothetical regular trackway, for two choices of duty factor (DF = 0.5 on the left and 0.75 on the right) and the eight gaits (G0–G7). Each trial depicts the same point in a step cycle at which both hind limbs and the right forelimb are in support and the left pes is about to start transition. For the high duty factor trials (right column), note that G0, G1, and G2 are consistent with the same CL (and likewise G4, G5, and G6 would be consistent with a constant, but shorter, CL)
