Der Gang des Menschen. 1-6 Abt. (All published.)

Abh. math.-phys. Cl. k. sächs. Ges. Wiss. Leipzig, 21, 25-26, 28, 33, 18951904.

Classic study of the human gait. The authors calculated the external and internal forces involved in walking and described the kinematics and kinetics of the movement. Because of Braune's death in 1892 he could only complete his contributions to part 1; the remaining parts were completed and issued by Fischer. English translation of parts 1 and 2 by Paul Maquet & Ronald Furlong as The human gait. Berlin: Springer, 1987.
