About

Feihong Yun is a robotics researcher whose work sits at the intersection of marine biofouling removal and dexterous manipulation. Yun’s most cited paper, “Analysis of Removing Barnacles Attached on Rough Substrate with Cleaning Robot” (2020, 14 citations), tackles a challenging real-world problem: designing a cleaning robot capable of removing stubborn marine fouling, such as barnacles, from rough steel piles. By focusing on the horizontal cutting mechanics of barnacle removal, Yun’s work directly addresses the practical difficulties of maintaining underwater infrastructure. In a complementary vein, Yun’s research on “Grasping Torque Optimization for a Dexterous Robotic Hand Using the Linearization of Constraints” (2019, 4 citations) advances the theory of robotic grasping. By simplifying the nonlinear friction cone into a polyhedral cone, Yun developed a linear programming approach to optimize grasping torques, making complex force calculations more computationally efficient. This dual focus—bridging the gap between rugged, real-world cleaning tasks and elegant, theoretical optimization—demonstrates a versatile engineering mindset. Yun’s contributions are particularly valuable for students and researchers interested in field robotics, underwater maintenance, and the mathematical foundations of robotic manipulation.
