...13 motion was implemented on the snake robot using a two-wave model [84, 102] comprised of orthogonal waves posteriorly traveling in the horizontal and vertical body planes (figure 7(b))....

...For example, we discovered that sandy slopes could be gracefully ascended by modulating the vertical wave to elicit a solid-like response from the sand [84]....

...An example of such a model is the modular snake robot locomoting on granular media used in [84]....
[...]
...As another example, a robotic snake [83] which was effective in many environments including hard ground, pipes, poles and water was unable to climb sandy slopes without catastrophic slips until systematic experiments revealed that contact length of the snake needed to be properly modulated to prevent yielding, maintain balance, and reduce stress on the granular substrate, [84] (section 5....
