— In human and animal running spring-like leg behavior is found, and similar concepts have been demonstrated by various robotic systems in the past. In general, a spring-mass mod...

In human and animal running spring-like leg behavior is found. In a spring-mass model, running proves to be self-stable in terms of external perturbations or variations in leg pro...
— Dynamic stability allows running animals to maintain preferred speed during locomotion over rough terrain. It appears that rapid disturbance rejection is an emergent property o...
We study the problem of computing the set F of accessible and stable placements of a spider robot. The body of this robot is a single point and the legs are line segments attached...
Abstract. The quantitative assessment of neck lymph nodes in the context of malign tumors requires an ecient segmentation technique for lymph nodes in tomographic 3D datasets. We p...
