Robust bipedal locomotion on flowable slopes via foot-driven terrain manipulation
Deniz Kerimoglu, Junnosuke Kamohara, Jiyeon Maeng +4
Bipedal robots are challenging to control because they operate close to instability, where small variations in foot-terrain contact can rapidly destabilize locomotion. On rigid ter…
A compliant ankle-actuated compass walker with triggering timing control
Deniz Kerimoglu, Ismail Uyanik
Passive dynamic walkers are widely adopted as a mathematical model to represent biped walking. The stable locomotion of these models is limited to tilted surfaces, requiring gravit…
Terradynamics and design of tip-extending robotic anchors
Deniz Kerimoglu, Nicholas D. Naclerio, Sean Chu +5
Most engineered pilings require substantially more force to be driven into the ground than they can resist during extraction. This requires relatively heavy equipment for insertion…
Learning manipulation of steep granular slopes for fast Mini Rover turning
Deniz Kerimoglu, Daniel Soto, Malone Lincoln Hemsley +4
Future planetary exploration missions will require reaching challenging regions such as craters and steep slopes. Such regions are ubiquitous and present science-rich targets poten…
