Slack-based tunable damping leads to a trade-off between robustness and efficiency in legged locomotion
Abstract Animals run robustly in diverse terrain. This locomotion robustness is puzzling because axon conduction velocity is limited to a few tens of meters per second. If reflex loops deliver sensory information with significant delays, one would expect a destabilizing effect on sensorimotor contro...
