About
Xianyuan Yang is a researcher specializing in the hydrodynamics and maneuverability of tethered underwater robots, with a particular focus on their performance in complex marine environments. His work integrates advanced numerical simulation techniques, including the mixing grid method and computational fluid dynamics, to analyze the interactions between robot bodies, control equipment, and external flow fields such as cnoidal waves. Among his most cited contributions is a 2021 study on the hydrodynamic response of a tethered underwater robot under wave conditions, which has garnered 13 citations and provides critical insights for designing stable, controllable systems in coastal and offshore applications. Yang’s research also explores the impact of symmetrically installed NACA66 hydrofoils and Ka 4-70/19A ducted propellers on robot maneuverability in uniform flows, offering practical design guidelines for improving thrust and control. With a cumulative citation count exceeding 20 across his key papers, Yang’s work is foundational for advancing autonomous underwater vehicle technology, particularly in tasks requiring precise station-keeping and wave resilience. His systematic approach to coupling hydrodynamics with control equipment performance marks a significant step toward more reliable and efficient underwater robotic systems.
