# # Dynamic optimization of walking on uneven terrain
#
# A simple walking model is optimized to walk over uneven terrain. The
# objective is to minimize energy expenditure, quantified by the push-off
# work performed with each step. The optimization here seeks to traverse a
# stretch of terrain, starting and ending at level walking, and taking the
# same amount of time as level walking.
#
# ## Walk over a single upward step
#
# The optimal compensation for a single upward step is to speed up
# beforehand, lose speed stepping upward, and then speed up again
# afterward. The optimal speed-ups both occur over several steps but have
# different shapes: the first one increases nearly exponentially with
# time, and the second one resembles a saturating exponential. The
# optimization is described by Darici et al. (2020), and tested with human
# subjects experiment (Darici and Kuo 2022).

# The optimization is performed with `optwalk`, which computes the
# minimum-work trajectory for `nsteps` of walking. A terrain may be
# provided by an array of height/angle changes `δs`.
#
# All quantities are plotted in dimensionless form, with base units of
# body mass $M$, leg length $L$, and gravitational acceleration $g$. Thus
# speed is normalized by $\sqrt(gL)$ and time by $\sqrt(L/g)$. For a
# typical leg length of $L = 1\,\mathrm{m}$, the equivalent dimensional
# speed is about 1.25 m/s, and step time about 0.55 s.
#
# ## Use varying step lengths to walk over a single upward step
#
# The model above uses fixed step lengths, whereas humans adjust step
# length with speed. The model can also be constrained to step at the
# preferred step length vs speed relationship of human, resulting in a
# different amplitude of speed fluctuations, but a similarly-shaped speed
# profile.

# WalkRW2ls has varying step lengths according to preferred human

# ## Walk over a bunch of terrains
#
# The terrain is specified as a series of angle/height changes each step.
# The task is to start and end with nominal level walking, and to traverse

# walking.

# ## Walk over a simple bump with no compensation
#
# Model walks with constant push-offs for steady walking, and encounters
# the up-step without any compensation. As a result of the unexpected
# upward step, the model loses speed, and with repeated constant
# push-offs, will eventually regain nominal speed. The number of regaining
# steps is described by the persistence distance. This model expends the
# same energy as level walking, but accumulates a time deficit compared to
# minimum-work compensation. Walking over a bump generally requires more
# time or more work. More detail is available from Darici, Temeltas, and
# Kuo (2020).

# ## Walk over a single bump with a reactive compensation
#
# Here the model does not anticipate the up-step and loses speed and time
# upon first contact with it. Thereafter, the model compensates and
# catches up to the level ground model by looking ahead and adjusting the
# trajectory of push-offs. This strategy therefore actually anticipates
# and optimally compensates for all steps other the first uneven one. It
# is almost impossible to regain time without some knowledge and goal for
# the terrain ahead. More detail is available from Darici, Temeltas, and
# Kuo (2020).
