NONLINEAR DYNAMICS OF CABLE GALLOPING VIA A TWO-DEGREE-OF-FREEDOM NONLINEAR OSCILLATOR
The galloping vibrations of a single transmission cable that may vibrate transversely and torsionally has been investigated via a two-degree-of-freedom oscillator. The analytical solutions of periodic motions for this two-degree-of-freedom system are represented by the finite Fourier series. The …

Movimentos induzidos por vórtices (VIM) de plataformas TLWP submetidas a correntes de alta intensidade
Vortex Induced Motions (VIM) classified as galloping occurs frequently in TLWP Platforms, however these movements are not always correctly taken into account during design phases. This work aimed to develop a formulation that represent this kind of movement for sway and yaw degrees-of-freedom. …

Experimental and Computational Study of Vibration-Based Energy Harvesting Systems for Self-Powered Devices
… model for energy harvesting from wake galloping. We also develop a high-fidelity simulation for the same phenomena. The modeling and high-fidelity simulations can be a part of a multi-disciplinary optimization framework to be used in the design and operation of galloping-based energy …

Performance of Self-excited Energy Harvesters with Tip Bodies of Non-circular Cross Section Shapes
… velocities. The presence of the aeroelastic galloping instability was detected by the behavior of the transversal tip displacement of the harvester as well as the coupling of the motion and shedding frequency from the bluff body. The effect of tip mass, free stream turbulence, tip body shape, …

A Kinematic Analysis of the Gallop of the Horse (Biomechanics, Gait, Equine, Locomotion, Canter)
… cameras simultaneously (243 frames/second) while galloping under the standardized conditions of a specially constructed 1.5-meter-wide track. Horses were all ridden the same saddle and bridle by one person. Kinematic variables determined for 62 strides included stride length, stride frequency, …

The hydrodynamics of water-walking insects and spiders
… such as the alternating tripod gait, rowing, galloping and leaping. We also examine quasi-static modes of propulsion in which the insect's legs are kept stationary: specifically, Marangoni propulsion and meniscus-climbing. Special attention is given to rationalizing the propulsion mechanisms …

Software and control design for the MIT Cheetah quadruped robots
… fully 3D gaits with flight periods, such as galloping. The backflip is accomplished through offline trajectory optimization with an accurate dynamic model and was the first backflip done on a quadruped robot.

Wave and current induced motions on TLPTAD multibody system
… study of vortex induced motions (VIM) and Galloping instabilities of the multi-body system when subject to currents. The motions developed by the TLP and the TAD in single-body cases are compared to multi-body cases when the floaters are disconnected and connected by a hawser system. …

Modeling of Nonlinear Unsteady Aerodynamics, Dynamics and Fluid Structure Interactions
… concept of harvesting energy from ambient and galloping vibrations of a bluff body is investigated. A piezoelectric transducer is attached to the transverse degree of freedom of the body in order to convert the vibration energy to electrical power. A coupled nonlinear distributed-parameter …

Policy regularized model predictive control framework for robust legged locomotion
… of gaits including trotting, bounding, and galloping, all without changing the set of algorithm parameters between experiments. Robustness to sensor and input noise, large push disturbances, and unstructured terrain demonstrate the ability of the predictive controller to adapt to uncertainty.

Characterization of gait energetics for electrically actuated quadrupeds
… Analysis of trotting, pronking, bounding and galloping gaits reveals trotting to be the most energetically efficient gait across Froude numbers from 0.2 to 45. This trend represents a significant difference from animals, which transition to a gallop at a Froude number between 2 to 3.

Understanding the motions of the cheetah tail using robotics
… torque on the body during a turn while galloping. A novel two degree of freedom tailed robot, Dima II, was then developed to experimentally validate the effect of this motion. Lastly, measurement of the cheetah tail inertia was performed during a routine necropsy where it was found to …

Design, development, and dynamic characterization of multi-axis force sensing composite footpad
… the MIT Cheetah robot such as running, walking, galloping, or hopping. The previously developed static ANN model was shown to be highly imprecise and a dynamic ANN model was developed to better predicate the force profile during impact. The dynamic ANN model was shown to perform 400% better at …
