Stabilization of Energy-Conserving Gaits for Point-Foot Planar Bipeds

2022-10-26 · Aakash Khandelwal, Nilay Kant, Ranjan Mukherjee

The problem of designing and stabilizing impact-free, energy-conserving gaits is considered for underactuated, point-foot planar bipeds. Virtual holonomic constraints are used to design energy-conserving gaits. A desired gait corresponds to a periodic hybrid orbit and is stabilized using the Impulse Controlled Poincar\'e Map approach. Numerical simulations for the case of a five-link biped demonstrate convergence to a desired gait from arbitrary initial conditions.

Stable Walking for Bipedal Locomotion under Foot-Slip via Virtual Nonholonomic Constraints

2026-03-30 · Leonardo Colombo, Álvaro Rodríguez Abella, Alexandre Anahory Simoes, Anthony Bloch arxiv

Foot slip is a major source of instability in bipedal locomotion on low-friction or uncertain terrain. Standard control approaches typically assume no-slip contact and therefore degrade when slip occurs. We propose a con…

Fast and Efficient Locomotion via Learned Gait Transitions

2021-04-09 · Yuxiang Yang, Tingnan Zhang, Erwin Coumans, Jie Tan 외

We focus on the problem of developing energy efficient controllers for quadrupedal robots. Animals can actively switch gaits at different speeds to lower their energy consumption. In this paper, we devise a hierarchical …

Learning Quadruped Locomotion Policies using Logical Rules

2021-07-23 · David Defazio, Yohei Hayamizu, Shiqi Zhang

Quadruped animals are capable of exhibiting a diverse range of locomotion gaits. While progress has been made in demonstrating such gaits on robots, current methods rely on motion priors, dynamics models, or other forms …

Dynamics, stability, and energy efficiency of an energy-recycling rimless wheel with spring-clutch legs

2026-06-20 · Tongchen Lin, Yanqiu Zheng, Chuhan Zhang, Ruigang Chen 외 arxiv

This paper proposes an energy-recycling rimless wheel with spring-clutch legs. The proposed mechanism uses a lockable clutch to store part of the impact-induced elastic energy after foot contact and reinject it in the ne…
