Abstract

In this paper, we analyze the locomotion of a double screw-like robot over compliant surfaces. We first develop an analytical model of locomotion over rigid surface. Then we use this model to determine the forces acting on the robot and environment to define the surface properties that allow the robot locomotion. Finally, we performed experiments using the robot to determine its thrust force and its speed over hollow silicone rubber.
