Abstract :
Summary form only given. We have developed and analyzed a physical model of biological rhythmic movement control. This closed-loop system consists of 1) a central pattern generator (CPG) with biologically relevant dynamics, 2) a linear mechanical system, and 3) position feedback. We show how the behavior or rhythmic movements can be controlled by the mechanical properties and sensory feedback without altering the intrinsic neural activity.
