Detection and Stabilization of Hybrid Periodic Orbits of Passive Running Robots

چکیده
In this paper a new algorithm to detect hybrid periodic orbits of autonomous hybrid dynamical system is developed. Conventional Newton algorithm is modified so that it suits to the analysis of Poincaré return map of hybrid dynamical systems that include multiple phases (modes) and discrete jumps. Then, the algorithm is applied to a specific example; planar one-legged robot model having a springy leg and a compliant hip joint. With the algorithm, passive running gaits of the one-legged robot are automatically detected for various parameter sets and initial conditions. The analysis of the characteristic multiplier of the return map revealed the stability and the bifurcation of the passive running gaits. Two kinds of controllers that achieve orbital stabilization are presented. A similarity is found between the detection algorithm and the stabilizing controller. The algorithm can be applied to any kinds of the robots (e.g. walking robot).

متن کاملSymmetry in legged locomotion: a new method for designing stable periodic gaits
This paper introduces a method for achieving stable periodic walking for legged robots. This method is based on producing a type of odd-even symmetry in the system. A hybrid system with such symmetries is called a Symmetric Hybrid System (SHS). We discuss the properties of an SHS and, in particular, will show that an SHS can have an infinite number of synchronized periodic orbits. We describe h...
متن کاملAsymptotically Stable Running for a Five-Link, Four-Actuator, Planar Bipedal Robot
Provably asymptotically stable running gaits are developed for the five-link, four-actuator bipedal robot, RABBIT. A controller is designed so that the Poincaré return map associated with periodic running gaits can be computed on the basis of a model with impulse effects that, previously, had been used only for the design of walking gaits. This feedback design leads to the notion of a hybrid ze...
