Serpentine Robot Locomotion: Implementation through Simulation
Machine locomotion using wheels, tracks or legs is common where as generating locomotion in a limbless, wheelless system is more challenging. Wheeled locomotion and legged locomotion have already been studied by many researchers in detail. On the contrary the limbless locomotion has drawn very limited degree of interest. In limbless locomotion (of a serpent) the cyclic changes in the body shape...
متن کاملSerpentine locomotion through elastic energy release
A model for serpentine locomotion is derived from a novel perspective based on concepts from configurational mechanics. The motion is realized through the release of the elastic energy of a deformable rod, sliding inside a frictionless channel, which represents a snake moving against lateral restraints. A new formulation is presented, correcting previous results and including situations never a...
متن کاملMultiple-objective Optimization of Serpentine Locomotion with Snake Robot by Using the NSGA
This paper starts with developing kinematic and dynamic model of a snake shape robot in serpentine locomotion and finishes with actual experimentation. At the beginning the symmetrical and unsymmetrical serpenoid curves are introduced. Kinematics and dynamics of a snake robot on flat and inclined surfaces are obtained for a general n-link robot. SimMechanics toolbox of MATLAB software is employ...
متن کاملStudy and Therapeutic Progress on Intracranial Serpentine Aneurysms
An intracranial serpentine aneurysm (SA) is a clinically rare entity, and very few multi-case studies on SA have been published. The present study reviewed the relevant literature available on PubMed. The studied information included the formation mechanism and natural history of SA as well as its clinical manifestation, imaging characteristics, and current treatments. After reviewing the liter...
متن کاملBiomechanical Determinants of Muscle Metabolic Energy Consumption in Locomotion
Individuals tend to walk at a speed that minimizes the metabolic energy consumption per unit distance. Within a speed, individuals self-select a stride frequency (SF) that minimizes the energy cost for that particular speed [1]. It remains unclear exactly why metabolic energy is minimized at the preferred SF. A better understanding of the factors that determine the cost of locomotion would shed...
