In oder for the robot to walk with stability, trajectory generation method for the biped robot is important. In this paper proposed the genetic algorithm to optimize biped robot motion parameters. Because most of trajectory generation, the walking parameters determined arbitrarily. Formulating the constraints of the motion parameters, and the trajectory is derived by cubic spline function. Finally walking patterns are described through simulation studies. When the ZMP(zero moment point) and DSM(dynamic stability margin) are satisfied, the walking pattern is chosen.

In this paper, we propose stable walking algorithm using ZMP for the biped robot in the slope-way. At first, we define discrete state variables that classified stable area and unstable area by center of mass from ZMP during slope-way walking. For the stable walking gait, the discrete state controller for determining the high-level and low-level decision making are designed. The high-level decision making is composed of the discrete state variables; left foot support phase, right foot support phase, flat-way, and slope-way. Then the continuous state controller is implemented for the low-level decision making using ZMP.

This paper is concerned with an energy optimization for the walking of IWR biped robot. The movement of balancing joints are determined by ZMP(Zero Moment Point) and dynamic properties caused by motion of a swing leg. Therefore, ZMP positions have an important role in walking and guarnateeing the stability of a robot. A genetic algorithm is utilized for solving this problem and finding ZMP with a minimum energy at each sampling time during the walk. In this study, we performed an energy optimization with desired ZMP trajectories and motion of balancing joints.

Generally, biped walking is difficult to control because a biped robot is a nonlinear system with various uncertainties. In this paper, we propose a hybrid control system to improve the efficiency of position tracking performance of biped locomotion. In our control system, the wavelet neural network (WNN) based on Sliding mode controller is used as a main controller which estimates a biped robot model, and the compensated controller is proposed to compensate the estimation error. A WNN is utilized to estimate uncertain and nonlinear system parameters, where the weights of WNN are trained by adaptive laws that are induced from the Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, the effectiveness of the proposed control system is verified through computer simulations.

Passive dynamic walking exhibits humanoid and energy efficient gaits. However, optimal design of passive walker at multi-variable level is not well studied yet. This paper presents a Chaotic Particle Swarm Optimization (CPSO) algorithm and applies it to the optimal design of flexible passive walker. Hip torsional stiffness and damping were incorporated into flexible biped walker, to imitate passive elastic mechanisms utilized in human locomotion. Hybrid dynamics were developed to model passive walking, and period-one gait was gained. The parameters global searching scopes were gained after investigating the influences of structural parameters on passive gait. CPSO were utilized to optimize the flexible passive walker. To improve the performance of PSO, multi-scroll Jerk chaotic system was used to generate pseudorandom sequences, and chaotic disturbance would be triggered if the swarm is trapped into local optimum. The effectiveness of CPSO is verified by comparisons with standard PSO and two typical chaotic PSO methods. Numerical simulations show that better fitness value of optimal design could be gained by CPSO presented. The proposed CPSO would be useful to design biped robot prototype.

This article describes a simple method for generating the walking trajectory for the biped humanoid robot. The method used a simple inverted model instead of complex multi-mass model and a reasonable explanation for the model simplification is included. The problem of gait trajectory generation is to find the solution from the desired ZMP trajectory to CoG trajectory. This article presents the analytic solution for the bipedal gait generation on the bases of ZMP trajectory. The presented ZMP trajectory has Fourier series form, which has finite or infinite summation of sine and cosine functions, and ZMP trajectory can be designed by calculating the coefficients. From the designed ZMP trajectory, this article focuses on how to find the CoG trajectory with analytical way from the simplified inverted pendulum model. Time segmentation based approach is adopted for generating the trajectories. The coefficients of the function should be designed to be continuous between the segments, and the solution is found by calculating the coefficients with this connectivity conditions. This article also has the proof and the condition of solution existence.

This paper presents reference ZMP trajectory generation and implementation for a biped robot via linear inverted dumbbell model (LIDM), which can consider the effect of external momentum on the center of mass (COM) of robot. Based on a reference ZMP trajectory derived by using LIDM, a base trajectory is proposed not only to make the locomotion of robot similar to that of human but also to facilitate its implementation and tuning. In order to realize a dynamic walking using the proposed trajectory, compliance, impedance and ZMP tracking controllers are adopted together. Extensive experiments show that the proposed locomotion of a biped robot is stable and also, similar to that of human. Further researches on balance recovery of a biped robot will be carried out to guarantee its robust locomotion in combination with the proposed trajectory.

본 논문은 인간의 보행에 대한 에너지 분석을 통해 biped robot의 설계 단계에서 최적의 보행제어인자를 추출하기 위한 연구이다. 에너지 효율이 높은 보행인자 값을 얻기 위해 인간의 보행영상을 획득하고, 획득된 영상을 5-link biped robot model로 근사화하여 dynamics와 energy를 분석한다. 또한 link의 길이 비율과 link의 무게, link의 관성의 변화를 통해 5-link로 근사화된 인간의 보행 효율과 기구적 요소 사이의 민감도를 판단할 수 있다. 인간과 자유도가 다른 biped robot이 인간과 같은 보행을 위하여 설계단계에서 고려되어야할 중요한 기구적 요소가 이러한 민감도를 통해 구해진다.

In this paper, we design a robust controller of biped robot system with uncertainties, using recurrent neural network. In our proposed control system, we use the self-recurrent wavelet neural network (SRWNN). The SRWNN makes up for the weak points in wavelet neural network(WNN). While the WNN has fast convergence ability, it dose not have a memory. So the WNN cannot confront unexpected change of the system. However, the SRWNN, having advantage of WNN such as fast convergence, can easily encounter the unexpected change of the system. For stable walking control of biped robot, we use sliding mode control (SMC). Here, uncertainties are predicted by SRWNN. The weights of SRWNN are trained by adaptive laws based on Lyapunov stability theorem. Finally, we carry out computer simulations with a biped robot model to verify the effectiveness of the proposed control system,.
