For small feet radii, the energy for walking is produced by the weight of the torso that is inclined forward.
To demonstrate the influence of the torso movements on the whole structure in a standing posture, two experiments were carried out.
The goal is to stabilize the torso while lower body follows a desired walking profile.
Due to the nonrigidity of the body, there are differences in the phase and amplitude of vibration of the torso and head.
The point is that the covered female torso does not seem to have had the connotation of modesty in any general sense.
One leg of this parallel mechanism is the articulation between the scapula and the torso, the other leg is the clavicle.
The legs and stomach were polished before or after the legs had been joined to the torso, but this area in between was largely ignored.
A sliding mode control law has been developed for the biped to follow a human-like gait trajectory while keeping the torso nearly upright.
