Hexapod – Multibody, Multi-Domain Physical Model in MapleSim – Maplesoft ­

Hexapod

This model uses multibody components to simulate the walking motion of a hexapod robot. Leg actuation is provided with trapezoidal signals. The calculation of the normal forces, friction, and deflections are made by contact elements for each "foot" of the hexapod.

A 3-D visualization demonstrates the prescribed walking motion.
This model was created with MapleSim 2023.0
