Hopping on Deformable Terrain with State-Based Switching: Dynamics and Implications for Robot Design

Date:

I delivered an oral presentation of preliminary results on the nonlinear dynamics of a simple spring-legged monopedal robot hopping on deformable (i.e., yielding) terrain. These preliminary results led to a journal paper, published late the following year in IEEE Transaction in Robotics.
