Locomotion analysis of a vibration-driven system with three acceleration-controlled internal masses

The controlled motion of a rigid body in the horizontal plane is investigated in this article. Three internal and acceleration-controlled masses are used to actuate the system. Dry friction acting between the system and the plane is isotropic. The dynamics of two basic motions of the system, that is...
