A miniature hybrid robot propelled by legs

This paper describes the development of an autonomous hybrid micro-robot that uses legs for propulsion and support of the rear half of the body and uses a pair of wheels for support of the front half. McKibben artificial muscles actuate the legs and the compressed air that activates the actuators is generated by an on-board power plant comprising a pair of lithium batteries powering a gear moto...

Swimming upstream: self-propelled nanodimer motors in a flow†

The dynamics of chemically-powered self-propelled nanodimer motors in a fluid flow are investigated. The dimer motors are confined to move in a square channel within which a Poiseuille-like fluid flow exists. The flow direction is opposite to that of the nanomotor’s directed motion. Simulations of the dynamics are carried out using mesoscopic hybrid molecular dynamics/multiparticle collision dy...

Dolphin-like Swimming Modeling for a Biomimetic Amphibious Robot ⋆

Abstract: This paper focuses on a dolphin-like swimming hydrodynamics problem for a biomimetic amphibious robot capable of both fishand dolphin-like swimming modes. A Lagrangian reduction has been established in terms of rigid-body dynamics. For robust gait control, a central pattern generator-based approach is incorporated into the model serving as explicit joint angle control. Consequently, a...

Efficient kinematics for jet-propelled swimming

We use computer simulations and an analytical model to study the relationship between kinematics and performance in jet-propelled jellyfish swimming. We prescribe different power-law kinematics for the bell contraction and expansion, and identify kinematics that yield high swimming speeds and/or high efficiency. In the simulations, high efficiency is found when the bell radius is a nearly linea...
