Biological observations on tetrapods locomotion deduce that anti-phase synchronization (APS) between fore and rear parts is beneficial for achieving a high-speed walking. On the other hand, theoretical analysis and experimental studies on quadruped robots suggest that a flexible spine potentially improves the gait efficiency and adaptability via smoothing the ground collisions. However, these two ...
