Development of a control system for a walking machine leg

Thompson, Eric William (1992-05-08)

This thesis presents a control system for a walking machine leg. The leg is representative of one of the six legs required for a proposed walking machine based on the geometry of the darkling beetle. Each of the thre ...
Force and impulse control for spring-mass running

Koepl, Devin N. (2011-12-02)

We present a novel control strategy for running which is robust to disturbances, and makes excellent use of passive dynamics for energy economy. The motivation for our control strategy is based on observations of animal ...
Kinematic analysis of legged system locomotion on smooth horizontal surfaces

Baek, Yoon Su (1990-07-30)

This thesis presents a model of legged locomotion in which position and velocity of body are directly controlled by positions and velocities of feet. One central relationship between foot acceleration, leg stroke and ...
