The purpose of this paper is to present the relationship between loading of the leg and the posture of an insect-like robot determined through computer simulation study. It presents the results of a static FEM analysis of a 3D robotic leg model performed using Abaqus 6.13. It also presents the kinematic structure of an insect-like walking robot capable of object manipulation.
