Differentiable and piecewise differentiable gaits for snake robots
—This paper describes a series of gaits which we developed for a free crawling snake robot. Snake robots, a class of hyper-redundant mechanisms, can use their many degrees of fre...

Morphological Snakes
We introduce a morphological approach to curve evolution. The differential operators used in the standard PDE snake models can be approached using morphological operations...

Co-evolution of active sensing and locomotion gaits of simulated snake-like robot
We propose an approach of automated co-evolution of the optimal values of attributes of active sensing (orientation, range and timing of activation of sensors) and the control of ...

Towards Automated Gait Generation for Dynamic Systems with Non-holonomic Constraints
— In this paper we generate gaits for dynamics systems that are subject to non-holonomic velocity constraints. These systems are referred to as mixed non-holonomic systems. The m...
