Geometric phase predicts locomotion performance in undulating living systems across scales
Jennifer M Rieser, Baxi Chong, Chaohui Gong +8
Self-propelling organisms locomote via generation of patterns of self-deformation. Despite the diversity of body plans, internal actuation schemes and environments in limbless vert…
Modelling and Path Planning of Snake Robot in cluttered environment
Akash Singh, Chaohui Gong, Howie Choset
Studying snake robot locomotion in a cluttered environment has been a complicated task because the motion model is discontinuous due to the physical contact with obstacles, and the…
A review on locomotion robophysics: the study of movement at the intersection of robotics, soft matter and dynamical systems
Jeffrey Aguilar, Tingnan Zhang, Feifei Qian +11
In this review we argue for the creation of a physics of moving systems -- a locomotion "robophysics" -- which we define as the pursuit of the discovery of principles of self gener…
Sidewinding with minimal slip: Snake and robot ascent of sandy slopes
Hamidreza Marvi, Chaohui Gong, Nick Gravish +7
Limbless organisms such as snakes can navigate nearly all terrain. In particular, desert-dwelling sidewinder rattlesnakes (Crotalus cerastes) operate effectively on inclined granul…
