About

Dominika Siwiec is a mechanical engineer and researcher whose work sits at the intersection of precision drive systems, robotics, and space engineering. Her research focuses primarily on the design, analysis, and optimization of gear mechanisms — particularly harmonic drives — for use in demanding environments such as outer space and industrial automation. Siwiec's most impactful contribution to date is her numerical analysis of hermetic harmonic drives in space vehicles, which has garnered 9 citations since its 2023 publication, demonstrating growing recognition within the aerospace and robotics engineering communities. This work addresses the unique challenges of operating mechanical systems in the hostile conditions of space, where repair is impossible and reliability is paramount. Her 2022 study on novel gear construction solutions for spacecraft control systems further establishes her expertise in developing resilient drive technologies for antennas, photovoltaic panel adjustment mechanisms, and manipulators. Earlier work on the non-compliance analysis of industrial robot arm components reflects her broader commitment to quality and precision in robotic systems. Collectively, Siwiec's research makes meaningful contributions to the advancement of reliable, high-performance mechanical systems for both terrestrial and extraterrestrial applications.
