About
Dr. Niraj Kumar Goswami is a robotics researcher whose work centers on the control and navigation of non-holonomic mobile robots, with a particular focus on trajectory tracking and disturbance rejection. His most impactful contribution, the 2018 paper "Sliding mode controller design for trajectory tracking of a non-holonomic mobile robot with disturbance," has garnered 56 citations, establishing him as a key voice in robust control strategies for wheeled systems. This work addresses the critical challenge of maintaining precise path-following in the presence of external disturbances—a fundamental problem in autonomous navigation. Dr. Goswami also explores the intersection of classical control theory and computational intelligence, as seen in his 2016 study on gain tuning of Lyapunov-based controllers using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO). Notably, his research extends to practical issues like slippage detection under uneven ground traction, where deviations from a planned path due to traction loss are modeled through changes in localized coordinates. By combining rigorous Lyapunov stability analysis with bio-inspired optimization, Dr. Goswami’s work bridges theoretical control design and real-world robotic applications, making his findings valuable for engineers developing resilient autonomous ground vehicles.
