Passive Movement Modeling of a Woodpecker Robot

Article Preview

Abstract:

This paper studies complex nonlinear dynamic behaviors of a woodpecker robot system which can only operate in the presence of friction as it relies on combined impacts and jamming. The woodpecker robot can periodically move without any drives and controls based on self-excited vibration principle. The whole time histories of the dynamic parameter simulations in successive periods indicate that the robot is able to achieve cyclical, stable passive movement.
