— Passive dynamics plays an important role in legged locomotion of the biological systems. The use of passive dynamics is expected for energy efficiency, self-stabilization agai...
— The spiders’ ability of walking and climbing on different surfaces and in different conditions is taken into account in this paper in order to define and study a suitable sp...
— Trotting and galloping allow a quadruped to rapidly traverse rough terrain. Modeling this motion, which is only dynamically stable, is of importance for legged robot operation ...
Previous interactive works have used springs, heuristics, and dynamics for surface placement applications. We present an analytical technique for kilohertz rate manipulation of CA...
The kinematics and force/displacement relationships of elements of biological joints are notoriously difficult to understand. In particular, the human knee has bearing surfaces o...
