Natural dynamics of spring-like running: Emergence of selfstability
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this study, the stability of conservative spring-mass running using a fixed angle of attack is addressed. For a given initial condition, different angles of attack result in periodic movement patterns. We apply a simple stride-to-stride analysis to prove the stability. Spring-like leg operation together with angle of attack control enables selfstabilised running.

Effects of Sowing Season and Method on Seedling Emergence and Survivor Rate of Vicia variabilis in Kermanshah Province, Iran
Rangelands are the main source of forage production whose degradation is being accelerated due to improper utilities. Furthermore, re-vegetation of palatable plants like Vicia variabilis is more limited in overgrazed rangelands. The objective of this study was to improve degraded rangelands in Meleh-Kabud (Kermanshah, Iran) through planting Vicia variabilis. The research was conducted at experi...

The emergence of corona virus (COVID-19) has create a great public concern as the outbreak is still ongoing and government are taking actions such as holiday extension, travel restriction, temporary closure of public work place, borders, schools, quarantine/isolation, social distancing and so on. To mitigate the spread, we proposed and analyzed a stochastic model for the continue spread of coro...

Compliant elements in the leg musculoskeletal system appear to be important not only for running but also for walking in human locomotion as shown in the energetics and kinematics studies of spring-mass model. While the spring-mass model assumes a whole leg as a linear spring, it is still not clear how the compliant elements of muscle-tendon systems behave in a human-like segmented leg structur...

The objectives of this study were to determine the diversity, seasonal dynamics and abundance of ticks infesting cattle in Isfahan zone, Iran. The study was conducted in three traditional cattle farms. No acaricides had been applied to cattle at the selected farms. Adult ticks were collected twice per month from different parts of the cattle's body. Environmental data, including relative humidi...
متن کاملNatural control of spring-like running: Optimised selfstabilisation
In this study, the influence of leg rotation during the swing phase on the stability of running is addressed. Therefore, conservative spring-mass running was investigated using a return map of the apex height. A fixed angle of attack can already result in selfstabilised running as found previously. By examining the return maps of all possible angles of attack, a rotational leg control is derive...
