Abstract
In this paper, first, we demonstrate the mechanisms of knee extension of stance leg in passive walking, and show the important role of the circular arc foot. Secondly, we demonstrate the influence of foot on the knee motion of swing leg. Finally, we derive the desired foot shape of passive walker, and demonstrate the validity of the foot by experiment.
