Geometric analysis of gaits and optimal control for three-link kinematic swimmers
Oren Wiezel, Suresh Ramasamy, Nathan Justus +2
Many robotic systems locomote using gaits - periodic changes of internal shape, whose mechanical interaction with the robot's environment generate characteristic net displacements.…

The Geometry of Optimal Gaits for Inertia-dominated Kinematic Systems
Ross L. Hatton, Zachary Brock, Shuoqi Chen +5
Isolated mechanical systems -- e.g., those floating in space, in free-fall, or on a frictionless surface -- are able to achieve net rotation by cyclically changing their shape, eve…
