脚長差に着目したバッタの歩行のシミュレーション解析

抄録

In nature, there are many insects with obvious different length of their legs. However, there was not much discussion about the influence of these leg length differences on walking. In this research, in order to elucidate the influence of the difference in leg length on walking, we focus on locusts, whose hind legs are considerably longer than other legs. Experimental observation shows that an inherent locust walking are quite different from other insects. Based on the result, we model locusts and simulate its locomotion using ODE. We realize walking locusts using the Tegotae-Based Approach and analyze the achieved walking.
