Leg Dynamics

Leg Dynamics is a mechanical system model that characterizes the time-varying forces, torques, and motions inherent in the articulated locomotor appendages of legged robots during interaction with terrain, distinguished by its focus on the dynamic behavior of individual leg structures rather than whole-body stability or gait planning.
