The optimization of the energy consumption is one of the most important problems that face the designers of mobile robots. This implies that it is significant to analyze the energy consumption of hydraulic quadruped robot under different gait parameters. In this paper, the kinematics and dynamics models of a hydraulic quadruped robot are established firstly. Then, the length of step, the height of step, the height of center of mass, and the duty ratio of gait cycle are set as the primary research points about the energy consumption of mobile robot. In addition, the energy consumptions of the feet with and without mechanical springs are compared and analyzed. In order to get the visual observation of energy cost in the hydraulic quadruped robot during a waking cycle and the best set of locomotion variables that achieve the energy optimization, related simulations are done for gait parameters. Finally, the results provide a recommendation for the gait planning of the hydraulic quadruped robot, that is, the quadruped robot should walk with a relatively long step length, a relatively low height of step, a relatively high height of center of mass, and a relatively small duty ratio of gait cycle.

For conventional adaptive control, time-varying parametric uncertainty and unmodeled dynamics are ticklish problems, which will lead to undesirable performance or even instability and nonrobust behavior, respectively. In this study, a class of discrete-time switched systems with unmodeled dynamics is taken into consideration. Moreover, nonlinear systems are here supposed to be approximated with the class of switched systems considered in this paper, and thereby switching control design is investigated for both switched systems and nonlinear systems to assure stability and performance. For robustness against unmodeled dynamics and uncertainty, robust model reference adaptive control(RMRAC) law is developed as the basis of controller design for each individual subsystem in the switched systems or nonlinear systems. Meanwhile, two different switching laws are presented for switched systems and nonlinear systems, respectively. Thereby, the authors incorporate the corresponding switching law into the RMRAC law to construct two schemes of switching control respectively for the two kinds of controlled systems. Both closed-loop analyses and simulation examples are provided to illustrate the validity of the two proposed switching control schemes. Furthermore, as to the proposed scheme for nonlinear systems, its potential for practical application is demonstrated through simulations of longitudinal control for F-16 aircraft.
In this work, we propose a new scheme to estimate the algebraic connectivity of the graph describing the network topology of a multi-agent system. We consider network topologies modeled by undirected graphs. The main ...
