Snake robots have advantages of terrain adaptability over wheeled mobile robots and
traditional articulated robot arms because of their limbless thin body structure and high …

Small carnivorous marine animals have developed agile movement abilities through long‐
term natural selection, resulting in excellent maneuverability and high swimming efficiency …

In this article, a unified motion modeling approach for the 3-D snake robot is proposed,
which enables motion prediction of all kinds of gaits generated by the backbone curve …

Snake robots have been a topic of discussion among researchers for decades. They are
potentially strong enough to bring substantial contributions to the fields which are …

We propose a new simplified model for the control design of snake robots and apply it to a
path-following control design using model predictive control (MPC). While MPC has an …

Soft robot modeling tends to prioritize soft robot dynamics in order to recover how they might
behave. Soft robot design tends to focus on how to use compliant elements with actuation to …

Snake robots are composed of multiple links and joints and have a high degree of freedom.
They can perform various motions and can overcome various terrains. Snake robots need …

The adaptability of soft robots makes them ideal candidates to maneuver through
unstructured environments. However, locomotion challenges arise due to complexities in …

Snake-like robots have been develo** in recent decades, and various bio-inspired ideas
are deployed in both the mechanical and locomotion aspects. In recent years, several …

Legged locomotion of robots can be greatly improved by bioinspired tribological structures
