Comparative analysis of the virtual and physical experiments with a snake robot’s rectilinear movement

摘要

Abstract The paper describes virtual and physical experimental studies of the “rectilinear movement” locomotion of a snake robot. Software for controlling the robot movements and registering the modules movements was developed in MATLAB and Simulink. A parameterized virtual model of a snake robot was implemented in the MSC Adams. Authors propose a method for processing experimental data and demonstrate the comparison results of the virtual and physical experiments.
