The paper deals with rectilinear motion of snake robot. In the paper the dynamic model of snake robot rectilinear motion is derived and subsequently analyzed. Besides the mathematical model the simulation model in Matlab / SimMechanics is done. Both mathematical and simulation model are compared in order to shown differences concerning to displacement of snake robot segment. The differences occur...
The paper deals with a rectilinear motion of a snake-like robot. At first the various kinds of friction models are discussed and then the mathematical model of rectilinear snake-like robot locomotion is established. Considering the isotropic Coulomb´s friction model the average velocity of N-mass system is derived. Further the average velocity dependence on the number of used masses N is described...
