Control of snake robots with switching constraints: trajectory tracking with moving obstacle [PDF]
, 2014 We propose control of a snake robot that can switch lifting parts dynamically according to kinematics. Snakes lift parts of their body and dynamically switch lifting parts during locomotion: e.g. sinus-lifting and sidewinding motions.

A Study on Sinus-Lifting Motion of a Snake Robot With Sequential Optimization of a Hybrid System [PDF]
, 2014 In this paper, we consider “sinus-lifting motion” of a living snake, in which a snake lifts up some parts of its body from the ground, and switches the lifted parts dynamically.

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.A codesign multiobjective optimization framework was developed to enhance the morphology and controller of a snake‐like robot driven by artificial muscles. It improved planar locomotion, agility, and power efficiency. The approach optimized link geometry and controller gains, revealing that shorter muscles near joints and longer linkages maximize ...

Soft Robotic Snake with Tunable Undulatory Gait for Efficient Underwater Locomotion
Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.This study designs an underwater soft snake robot using 3D‐printed soft actuators, controlled by specific signals to generate sinusoidal undulation. Results show a positive correlation between speed and swing amplitude, with optimal performance at 2/3π phase offset, PLA tail, 1.2 voltage growth rate, and 6s undulation period achieving a maximum speed ...
