About

Zoubir Abdeslem Benselama is a leading researcher in the field of robotics, with a primary focus on the control and coordination of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots (WMRs). His work masterfully integrates advanced control theory with artificial intelligence, specifically addressing the complex challenges of autonomous navigation and multi-robot systems. A key contribution is his pioneering use of fuzzy logic and dead reckoning for visual tracking in unknown environments, enabling a robot to locate and pursue a target while dynamically avoiding obstacles without a pre-planned map. This foundational work has garnered 11 citations. More recently, Dr. Benselama has made significant strides in formation control, developing novel strategies that combine adaptive control with fractional-order calculus. His 2023 paper on "Formation control of nonholonomic wheeled mobile robots via fuzzy fractional-order integral sliding mode control" (10 citations) introduces a robust method for maintaining a desired geometric formation among multiple robots, even in the presence of system uncertainties and external disturbances. By advancing the robustness and adaptability of multi-robot systems, his research is paving the way for more reliable and intelligent autonomous fleets in applications ranging from warehouse logistics to environmental exploration.
