All Common Bipedal Gaits Emerge from a Single Passive Model

Описание: In this project, we systematically investigate passive gaits that emerge from the natural mechanical dynamics of a bipedal system. We use an energetically conservative model of a simple spring-leg biped that exhibits well-defined swing leg dynamics. Through a targeted continuation of periodic motions of this model, we systematically identify different gaits that emerge from simple bouncing in place.
