Abstract

This paper has been studied the movement of snake robot. In this paper we developed a simulator to simulate the creeping locomotion of a snake robot. This Robot makes possible to analyze the creeping locomotion with the normal-direction slip coupled to gliding along the tangential direction. Using the nonslip condition of the wheels, the robot gains propulsion by means of constrained forces on the wheels caused by bending the joints. The results of simulations show that smooth lateral undulatory motion is achived.
