摘要: A computer (Fortran) model is proposed that describes the temporal and spatial coordination pattern of straight walking stick insects (Carausius morosus) for a broad speed range. It provides stable independent different starting positions. The based on six relaxation oscillators. leading oscillator corresponds to frontleg. Therefore information flow runs from front rear in contrast earlier models (Graham, 1972; Wendler, 1968).
