Bio-mimetic gains its popularity in many different fields. It is interesting to find the rules of the world and applying in engineering. In nature, different locomotion is used by many different animals. The snake crawling motion is studied in this thesis to understand its locomotion principles and the difference to adapt the change of environment.he thesis consists of two parts. The first one is to take the image data from snake videos, and the second part is to analyze the trend of motion in different environment. From our observations, the swing of snake’s forward part is smaller than the other part when snake serpentines. The swings of snake’s body are not the same when snake serpentines on different ground. It means snakes get enough forward force from the middle part of body, the forward part of snake explores the environment, and the tail of snake just follow the body curve.he proposed work of the thesis is to study the serpentine movement of snakes and the change of movement in different environments. When a snake-like robot moves with varying bending angle amplitudes, it has higher speed and consumes lower power. It could be applied the advantages of snakes in engineering field.致謝 I要 IIbstract IIIontents IVist of Figures VIist of Tables IXymbols Xhapter 1 Introduction 1.1 Locomotion of Animals 1.2 Introduction to Bio-mimicry 2.3 Motivation 5.4 Thesis Organization 6hapter 2 Snake Locomotion and Robots 8.1 Locomotion of Snakes 8.1.1 Serpentine Movement 8.1.2 Rectilinear Movement 9.1.3 Concertina Movement 10.1.4 Side-winding Movement 11.2 Morphology of Snake Movement 12.3 The Kinematics of Snake Motions 18.4 Snake-like Robots 19.4.1 Active Cord Mechanism 20.4.2 Michigan Snake 21.4.3 GMD-Snake 22hapter 3 Efficiency on Variable Bending Angles for Snake Locomotion 24.1 Image Analysis of Snake Locomotion 25.2 Analysis from Bending Angle Data 31.2.1 Moving on Jigsaw Mats 33.2.2 Moving on Door Mats with Protrusion 35.2.3 Moving on Door Mats with Poles 36.2.4 Observations and Discussions 37.3 Experiments with Snake-like Robot 38.4 Experimental Results 40hapter 4 Conclusions and Future Work 50ppendix 51eferences 551302228 bytesapplication/pdfen-US蛇行運動蜿蜒爬行蛇型機械人snake locomotionserpentine movementsnake-like robot固定與變動彎曲角度對蛇行運動效率之分析Efficiency on Snake Locomotion with Constant and Variable Bending Anglesthesishttp://ntur.lib.ntu.edu.tw/bitstream/246246/187956/1/ntu-97-R95921073-1.pdf
