No legged walking robot yet approaches the high reliability and the low power usage of a
walking person, even on flat ground. Here we describe a simple robot which makes small …

The development of bipedal walking robots is inspired by human walking. A way of
implementing walking could be performed by mimicking human leg dynamics. A …

In the paper, we are going to show how robotics is undergoing a shift in a bionic direction
after a period of emphasis on artificial intelligence and increasing computational efficiency …

Recently, myriapods have attracted the attention of engineers because mobile robots that
mimic them potentially have the capability of producing highly stable, adaptive, and resilient …

Robots that exploit their embodiment promise to be more robust, energy-efficient, and
adaptable. However, the majority of systems designed in this way are only capable of …

This paper studies a passive biped walker with knees and biomimetic feet and its behavior,
as a function of key parameters. The model includes a continuous dynamic representation of …

In recent years, there has been increasing interest in the study of gait patterns in both
animals and robots, because it allows us to systematically investigate the underlying …

Jet im**ement cooling has been studied extensively as this finds applications in the areas
of reactor safety, electronic cooling, etc. Here, the convective heat transfer process between …

This thesis presents a model-based controller design framework for bipedal robots that
combines energy-efficiency with stability. We start with a physics based model for the robot …

To effectively control a robot's motion, it is common to employ a simplified model that
approximates the robot's dynamics. Nevertheless, discrepancies between the actual …
