Abstract-This paper presents the dynamic modeling of a continuous three-dimensional swimming eel-like robot. The modeling approach is based on the "geometrically exact beam theory" and on that of Newton-Euler, as it is well known within the robotics community. The proposed algorithm allows us to compute the robot's Galilean movement and the control torques as a function of the expected internal deformation of the eel's body.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
