1. Comparing Four Modelling Methods for the Simulation of a Soft Quadruped Robot
University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)Abstract : A soft quadruped robot is being developed at the Department of Machine Design and Department of Production Engineering at KTH. The legs of the robot consist of four continuum actuators that can achieve complex movements. In order to efficiently develop gaits for the robot, reinforcement learning will be used. READ MORE

2. Compression Characteristics of Elastomer Elements
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Compression of elastomer elements are nonlinear due to the cross-linked molecular structure owing to a property known as hyperelasticity. Hyperelasticity is defined as the nonlinear stress-strain behavior shown by rubber like materials which can be strained up to a range of 700% in tension and up to 40% in compression. READ MORE

3. Structure and Gait Optimizationof a Soft Quadrupedal Robot
University essay from KTH/Skolan för industriell teknik och management (ITM)Abstract : Quadrupedal robots are mobile robots with four limbs. Compared with other mobile robots, quadrupedal robots are more capable of moving in complex environment. Specifically, softquadrupedal robots have the limbs that are flexible and more compliant with the environmentthan that of rigid quadrupedal robots. READ MORE
