Modeling and controllability for a class of hybrid mechanical systems
Abstract-- This work studies a class of hybrid mechanical systems that locomote by switching between constraints defining different dynamic regimes. We develop a geometric framewor...

The Discrete Time Behavior of Lazy Linear Hybrid Automata
We study the class of lazy linear hybrid automata with finite precision. The key features of this class are: – The observation of the continuous state and the rate changes assoc...

HZD-based control of a five-link underactuated 3D bipedal robot
Abstract— This paper presents a within-stride feedback controller that achieves an exponentially stable, periodic, and fast walking gait for a 3D bipedal robot consisting of a to...

A passive 2DOF walker: Finding gait cycles using virtual holonomic constraints
— A planar compass-like biped on a shallow slope is the simplest model of a passive walker. It is a two-degrees-offreedom impulsive mechanical system known to possess periodic so...

Stable dynamic walking over uneven terrain
We propose a constructive control design for stabilization of non-periodic trajectories of underactuated robots. An important example of such a system is an underactuated “dynam...
