We introduce a new feature of the inverted pendulum by taking a pivot point under the ground level allowing a natural trajectory for the center of pressure (CoP), like in human walking. The influence of the vertical position of the pivot point on energy consumption is analyzed here. The evaluation of a 3D Walking gait is based on the energy consumption. A sthenic criterion is used to depict this evaluation. A consequent reduction of joint torques is shown with a pivot point under the ground.}, type={Artykuły / Articles}, title={Using the generalized inverted pendulum to generate less energy-consuming trajectories for humanoid walking}, URL={http://www.czasopisma.pan.pl/Content/85127/PDF/ame-2016-0014.pdf}, doi={10.1515/meceng-2016-0014}, keywords={inverted pendulum, pivot point, walking robots, energy consumption, joint torques}, }
