Structure2
A leg is a weight-bearing and locomotive anatomical structure, usually having a columnar shape. (wikipedia.org)
A leg is a structure of gross anatomy, meaning that it is large enough to be seen unaided. (wikipedia.org)
Foot1
Turning on the bathroom light early one morning, a gigantic centipede-with its blur of legs-ran up and over my foot without breaking stride. (paperpanda.app)
Parts2
They are eaten and considered a delicacy by humans in many parts of the world, especially the Mediterranean and the Asian seas. (wikipedia.org)
Volcanism and tectonic activity over millions of years have resulted in an intricate network of caves that spans the entirety of Kennars, connecting distant parts of the planet and providing shelter for both human and native Kennarsian life. (roleplayerguild.com)
Arms1
a darkly colored, elongated arthropod with four sickle-like clawed arms, huge jagged mandibles and an additional pair of massive, antenna-like lances emerging from its back. (bogleech.com)
Shape1
Although its primary shape is human-looking, it can transform into a bird-like mecha. (tvtropes.org)
Separate1
Another graduate student in the lab, Baxi Chong, has analyzed how separate waves in the legs and the bodies sync up. (paperpanda.app)
Energy1
Kennars is highly volcanically active, with many volcanoes and hydrothermal vents that provide an energy source for human and Aallae settlements alike. (roleplayerguild.com)
Impossible1
As one can imagine, this makes it almost impossible for vegetation to grow and difficult for humans to settle. (roleplayerguild.com)
Locomotion1

Vertebrates1
To support their weight, some larger-legged vertebrates use forces generated by vigorous slapping of the fluid's surface followed by a stroke of their appendage [7-12], whereas smaller animals, like arthropods, rely on surface tension to walk on water [6, 13]. (berger-odenthal.de)

Insects may be found in nearly all environments, although only a small number of species reside in the oceans, a habitat dominated by another arthropod group, crustaceans. (partcommunity.com)
As it allows for rapid yet stable movement, many insects adopt a tripedal gait in which they walk with their legs touching the ground in alternating triangles. (partcommunity.com)
Humans regard certain insects as pests, and attempt to control them using insecticides and a host of other techniques. (partcommunity.com)

Chen Li and colleagues from the Georgia Institute of Technology in Atlanta took cues from such creatures and designed a robot that uses six legs to traverse a bed of dry, loose grains. (aaas.org)
The robotic design isn't as effective as a lizard's but it can move through sand at a reasonable pace without getting stuck, and it may help to boost the performance of roving and walking robots, such as the Mars rovers, the researchers said. (aaas.org)
Taking into account these forces and their varying influences on each robotic leg as the leg enters and exits the different granular surfaces, Chen Li and co-author Tingnan Zhang settled on a particular robotic design that optimized each step regardless of the grain shapes or sizes. (aaas.org)
Weight3
A leg is a weight-bearing and locomotive anatomical structure, usually having a columnar shape. (wikipedia.org)

Media1
The resistive force theory, which was developed by some of the pioneers of fluid mechanics back in the '30s and '40s, works surprisingly well when applied to legs rotating in the sand-that is, when it's supplemented with the appropriate drag and lift force relations for this granular media.
