English: Most centipedes and all millipedes, and indeed 4-legged creatures, walk with the rear legs leading the legs in front. In centipedes, this results in waves propagating from back to front. This simulation was created in w:OpenSCAD using a leg motion in which each foot spends half the time on the ground, and the motion of legs in adjacent segments are offset in phase by 45°. Changing the sign of the phase offset results in forward locomotion with the waves propagating from front to back, which is a characteristic of some centipedes such as scolopendra hero.}
