Stable and robust walking with compliant legs
— Bipedal walking could be implemented into a robot by mimicking spring-like leg behaviour. The fundamental model, describing human-like leg function in walking is the bipedal sp...

DSAC - Dynamic, Single Actuated Climber: Local stability and bifurcations
— This paper investigates a novel mechanism, called DSAC for Dynamic, Single Actuated Climber, which propels itself upwards by oscillating its leg in a symmetric fashion using a ...

A quasi-passive model of human leg function in level-ground walking
- In this paper, we seek to understand how leg muscles and tendons work mechanically during walking in order to motivate the design of efficient robotic legs. We hypothesize that a...

Modular neuroevolution for multilegged locomotion
Legged robots are useful in tasks such as search and rescue because they can effectively navigate on rugged terrain. However, it is difficult to design controllers for them that ...

Evolving coordinated quadruped gaits with the HyperNEAT generative encoding
— Legged robots show promise for complex mobility tasks, such as navigating rough terrain, but the design of their control software is both challenging and laborious. Traditional...
