About

Alexandra Rotaru is a dedicated robotics researcher whose work focuses on advancing mobile robotic systems for critical real-world applications, particularly in search and rescue operations. Her primary research areas include mobile robotics, mechanical design, and force analysis of complex robotic mechanisms. Her most notable contribution is the development of a novel mobile robotic structure with off-road capabilities, designed to navigate disaster areas where human intervention is unsafe. This work, published in 2018, has garnered 5 citations, reflecting its relevance in the field of emergency robotics. Rotaru’s research addresses the mechanical challenges of creating robust, terrain-adaptive robots, as seen in her detailed study of forces in a 2T9R robot mechanism (2021, 3 citations), where she developed methods for calculating inertial forces and reactions in kinematic couples. Her achievements highlight a commitment to bridging theoretical mechanics with practical engineering, offering solutions that enhance robot autonomy and safety in hazardous environments. For students and researchers, Rotaru’s work exemplifies how precise mechanical analysis can drive innovation in life-saving technologies, making her a valuable contributor to the evolving landscape of mobile robotics.
