Speed, Efficiency and Stability of Small-Slope 2-D Passive Dynamic Bipedal Walking
This paper addresses some performance limits of the kneed and non-kneed passive-dynamic walking machines discovered by McGeer [10, 11]. Energetic inefficiency is measured by the s...

Polygon Decomposition for Efficient Construction of Minkowski Sums
Several algorithms for computing the Minkowski sum of two polygons in the plane begin by decomposing each polygon into convex subpolygons. We examine different methods for decompo...
