Slack-based tunable damping leads to a trade-off between robustness and efficiency in legged locomotion
An Mo, Fabio Izzi, Emre Cemal Gönen +2
Animals run robustly in diverse terrain. This locomotion robustness is puzzling because axon conduction velocity is limited to a few ten meters per second. If reflex loops deliver…

Muscle pre-stimulation tunes viscous-like perturbation rejection in legged hopping
Fabio Izzi, An Mo, Syn Schmitt +2
Muscle fibres possess unique visco-elastic properties, capable of generating a stabilising zero-delay response to unexpected perturbations. This instantaneous response -- termed "p…

Effective Viscous Damping Enables Morphological Computation in Legged Locomotion
An Mo, Fabio Izzi, Daniel F. B. Haeufle +1
Muscle models and animal observations suggest that physical damping is beneficial for stabilization. Still, only a few implementations of mechanical damping exist in compliant robo…
