چکیده
Legged robots allow the locomotion on terrains inaccessible to other type of vehicles because they do not need a continuous support surface. Different strategies have been adopted for the optimization of these systems, during their design and construction phases, and during their operation. Among the different optimization criteria followed by different authors, it is possible to find issues related to energy efficiency, stability, speed, comfort, mobility and environmental impact. Evolutionary strategies are a way to ”imitate nature” replicating the process that nature designed for the generation and evolution of species. The objective of this paper is to present a genetic algorithm, running over a simulation application of legged robots, which allows the optimization of several parameters of the robot model and of its gaits, for different locomotion speeds.

An Efficient Algorithm for Workspace Generation of Delta Robot
Dimensional synthesis of a parallel robot may be the initial stage of its design process, which is usually carried out based on a required workspace. Since optimization of the links lengths of the robot for the workspace is usually done, the workspace computation process must be run numerous times. Hence, importance of the efficiency of the algorithm and the CPU time of the workspace computatio...

In path planning Problems, a complete description of robot geometry, environments and obstacle are presented; the main goal is routing, moving from source to destination, without dealing with obstacles. Also, the existing route should be optimal. The definition of optimality in routing is the same as minimizing the route, in other words, the best possible route to reach the destination. In most...

متن کاملPareto design of fuzzy tracking control based on the particle swarm optimization algorithm for a walking robot in the lateral plane on slope
Many researchers have controlled and analyzed biped robots that walk in the sagittal plane. Nevertheless, walking robots require the capability to walk merely laterally, when they are faced with the obstacles such as a wall. In walking robot field, both nonlinearity of the dynamic equations and also having a tracking system cause an effective control has to be utilized to address these problems...
