“…The walk of a bipedal robot is modeled by a hybrid impulsive nonlinear dynamics (Fathizadeh et al 2019;Goswami et al 1998;Iqbal et al 2014), which is considered complex and which can generate periodic cycles, quasi-periodic behaviors, chaotic motions and several types of bifurcation, including the period-doubling bifurcation, the cyclic-fold bifurcation, and the Neimark-Sacker bifurcation (called also the torus bifurcation), as for example in (Added andGritli 2022, 2023;Added et al 2021a,c;Fathizadeh et al 2018;Goswami et al 1998;Gritli and Belghith 2016a,b, 2017a,b, 2018bGritli et al 2012Gritli et al , 2011Gritli et al , 2018Jun 2022;Makarenkov 2020;Montazeri Moghadam et al 2018;Nourian Zavareh et al 2018). The existence and study of the period-doubling bifurcations exhibited in the biped robots' walking has been widely realized in the literature using the principle of Poincaré maps and also by determining its analytical expression like in (Znegui et al 2020a(Znegui et al , 2021 and also by using it in the chaos control (Znegui et al 2020b).…”
