Trajectory Optimisation Inspired Design for Legged Robotics by Fisher, Callen

“…For robots to successfully explore the unknown world outside of the laboratory environment, these transient manoeuvres need to be thoroughly understood and mastered. As controlling and designing legged robots is an extremely complex task, this thesis argues that trajectory optimisation methods can be employed to make various aspects of design more tractable. …”
