Experimental Investigation of a Passive Compliant Torsional Suspension for Curved-Spoke Wheel Stair Climbing

Curved-spoke wheels have been proposed as an effective way to overcome stair-like obstacles with smooth, rotation-only motion. However, when the wheel’s contact point shifts, discontinuous changes in its radius of curvature cause abrupt drops in the robot’s linear speed, often leading to reduced pay...
