- Walking-robot technology has reached an advanced stage of development, as has already been demonstrated by a number of real applications. However, further improvement is still ne...
- Time optimal control method for quadruped walking robots are developed and installed into a practical robot system. Each leg is modeled as a two link manipulator whose time optim...
Using tools from discrete dynamical systems theory, we begin a systematic analysis of a distributed model of leg coordination with both biological and robotic applications. In this...
This paper reports how and to what extent the mass distribution of a passive dynamic walker can be tuned to maximize walking speed and stability. An exploration of the complete pa...
— It is generally accepted that locomotion in animals is based on a trade-off between energy consumption and stability. However, this trade-off is the result of the interaction b...
