In this method,the authors estimated an acceleration-dependent body slope.That slope corresponded to a given terrain slope during constant speed running,for which energy costs were known. Then they used accelerations(transformed into equivalent slopes)in a previously reported regression equation for energy cost estimation during uphill and downhill running at constant speed.
