Mathematical modeling and computer simulation of locomotion conditions of vibration-driven robots

This paper investigates the dynamic behavior and locomotion characteristics of vibration-driven robots with wheeled chassis, focusing on the comparison of two types of vibration exciters: a solenoid-type actuator and a centrifugal (inertial) exciter.  The research methodology involves 3D modeling using SolidWorks software to design the robots, numerical modeling in Mathematica software to simulate their motion and predict kinematic characteristics, and computer simulation in SolidWorks Motion software to validate the modeling results.  The robots utilize overrunning clu
