System Design of a Quadrupedal Galloping Machine
In this paper we present the system design of a machine that we have constructed to study a quadrupedal gallop gait. The gallop gait is the preferred high-speed gait of most cursorial quadrupeds. To gallop, an animal must generate ballistic trajectories with characteristic strong impacts, coordinate leg movements with asymmetric footfall phasing, and effectively use compliant members, all the w...
متن کاملThe Mechanics of Quadrupedal Galloping and the Future of Legged Vehicles
Previous studies have noted that biological quadrupeds adjust their gaits when encountering drag in their locomotion. This paper investigates the hypothesis that these gait adjustments allow the legs to operate at an optimal working length when generating thrust. A 5-DoF dynamic model of a quadruped having a rigid trunk and massless legs is formulated. This model reflects the dimensions and ine...
متن کاملMachine Learning for Fast Quadrupedal Locomotion
For a robot, the ability to get from one place to another is one of the most basic skills. However, locomotion on legged robots is a challenging multidimensional control problem. This paper presents a machine learning approach to legged locomotion, with all training done on the physical robots. The main contributions are a specification of our fully automated learning environment and a detailed...
متن کاملA Robust FACTS Damping Controller Design to Mitigate Interarea Oscillations in a Multi-machine Power System
In this paper, damping of interarea oscillations using simultaneous coordination of static Var compensator (SVC) and power system stabilizer (PSS) is considered. To be effective in damping of oscillations, the best-input signal of power oscillation damper (POD) associated with SVC is selected using Hankel singular values (HSVs), and right-hand plane zeros (RHP-zeros). The 4-machine-2 area...
متن کاملinvestigating the feasibility of a proposed model for geometric design of deployable arch structures
deployable scissor type structures are composed of the so-called scissor-like elements (sles), which are connected to each other at an intermediate point through a pivotal connection and allow them to be folded into a compact bundle for storage or transport. several sles are connected to each other in order to form units with regular polygonal plan views. the sides and radii of the polygons are...
