The purpose of this research is to realize a small robot which can negotiate pipes whose diameter varies widely during the robot’s course. A new in-pipe locomotion mechanism nam...
This paper studies the mechanical configuration and the periodic gaits of multi-legged locomotion systems based on its kinematic and dynamic models. The purpose is to determine the...
We present a novel locomotion strategy called legless locomotion that allows a round-bodied legged robot to locomote approximately when it is high-centered. Typically, a high-cent...

Abstract— Salamanders propel themselves by proper coordination of limb movements and body undulations. This type of locomotion is interesting for robotics to design robots capabl...
- Polychaete annelid worms provide a biological paradigm of versatile locomotion and effective motion control, adaptable to a large variety of unstructured environmental conditions...
