Hello all, This week, we talked about data-driven approaches to Geometric Mechanics. We will be breaking for the remainder of the term to allow everyone to finish up with school/research - enjoy your holidays, and I'll see you in the new year!

Hello all, This week, Farhan led a discussion on the HISSbot, and we talked about next steps. Next week, we'll be discussing Bittner et al., *Geometrically Optimal Gaits: a Data-Driven Approach*. See you all next week!

Hello all, This week, Ryan talked about doing dynamic control of Cassie (with a special guest appearance from yours truly). If you want to review the slides, they are shared below: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1b5FEV3CA-_3ydFWHicm7mIsrepAR1dUMIXY… Next week, Nathan will be talking about application of Geometric Mechanics to dynamic systems, and the changes he's had to make in that domain.

Hello all, This week, Ruijie gave a great talk on her current work. If you want to review her slides, they are shared on google slides: https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/16NGHHIOj55QLikF_BxeggvPW6nriKkn2IzW… Next week, Ryan will be presenting his project, which involves dynamic control on Cassie. I may also talk a little about my contribution.

Hello all, Today, Jinwoo led our discussion of the inertia-dominated systems paper. Next week, Ruijie will be presenting her current research; if there is any background we should be aware of, please let us know!

Hello all, Today, Farhan led our discussion of the drag-dominated gait optimization paper. Next week, Jinwoo has offered to present Hatton et. al, T*he Geometry of Optimal Gaits for Inertia-dominated Kinematic Systems*. It can be found on arXiv: https://arxiv.org/abs/2102.01506. I look forward to seeing everyone next week!

Hello all, Today, Nathan led a great overview of the Kinematic Cartography paper; next week, Farhan will lead the discussion of Ramasamy and Hatton, *The Geometry of Optimal Gaits for Drag-Dominated Kinematic Systems*. I've attached the meeting as an ICS file, or you can add it to google calendar with the following link. Let me know if either don't work.

Hello all, Today, we introduced Geometric Mechanics with Hatton/Choset's Nonconservativity/Noncommutativity paper. Next week, we will be discussing Hatton et. al, *Kinematic Cartography and the Efficiency of Viscous Swimming*, which ought to be a natural continuation of the topics from today. Nathan has volunteered to lead the discussion next week! Have a great week, and see you next Tuesday!

Fall Reading Group Meeting Time
by Bass, Capprin James 27 Sep '21

27 Sep '21

Hello all, Thanks to those of you that filled out the when2meet; based on everyone's responses, we'll be meeting at 10AM PDT every Tuesday. As much as I would enjoy meeting in person, I think it will be best to continue with the remote mode for this term; as such, the meeting link is below. Meeting Link: https://oregonstate.zoom.us/j/96296901909?pwd=OXd0K0FqOUpNNzV4cGx5R1AwRDFzd… As a reminder, we'll be discussing Hatton and Choset, *Nonconservativity and Noncommutativity in locomotion: Geometric mechanics in minimum-perturbation coordinates*. You should all be able to access it through the university library website. In the interest of covering more content this term, I would like our first meeting to be *tomorrow, 09/28/2021*. Please read the material beforehand. I understand that this may be too soon for some; if that's the case, please reply to the group or email me personally, and we can wait another week. See you soon!
