A Physical Model and Control Strategyfor Biped Running

• Characterizes the mechanics of biped running with a tractable model and principles.

• Presents a simple, heuristic control strategy that achieves stable running.

• Introduces the Equilibrium Running Index, capturing the physical parameters effecting running speed.
