We continue the analysis of the network of symmetrically coupled cells mode
ling central pattern generators (CPG) for quadruped locomotion proposed by
Golubitshy-Stewart, Buono and Collins by studying secondary gaits. Secondar
y gaits are modeled by output signals from the CPG where each cell emits on
e of two different output signals along with exact phase shifts. Examples o
f secondary gaits are transverse gallop, rotary gallop, and canter. We clas
sify secondary gaits that bifurcate when the Poincare map of a primary gait
has a real eigenvalue crossing the unit circle. in particular, we show tha
t periodic solutions modeling transverse gallop and rotary gallop bifurcate
from primary gaits. Moreover, we find gaits from period-doubling bifurcati
ons and analyze plausible footfall patterns. Numerical simulations are perf
ormed using the Morris-Lecar equations as cell dynamics.
