Abstract
Changes in pedality can occur in animals due to injury, congenital defects, or behaviour. Here, an attempt is made to reproduce similar conditions on a nominally quadrupedal robot upon losing functionality in one leg, rendering it tripedal. The change in walking speed and energy efficiency are examined for both quadrupedal amble and basic tripedal walking gaits.
