About
Bowen Zhan is a leading researcher in the fields of space robotics and intelligent autonomous systems, with a particular focus on on-orbit servicing, manipulation, and path planning. His major contributions include pioneering a novel collision-free detumbling strategy for space robots equipped with 7-DOF manipulators, addressing the critical challenge of stabilizing rotational non-cooperative targets after capture—a problem central to future debris removal and satellite servicing missions. He has also advanced finite-time adaptive control for dual-arm space robots, overcoming uncertainties in kinematics, dynamics, and actuator deadzone nonlinearities to enable precise trajectory tracking for coordinated manipulation tasks. Zhan’s work on a whale optimization algorithm for mobile robot path planning has garnered significant attention, with 80 citations, highlighting its impact on efficient, bio-inspired navigation strategies. His recent review of space robotics technology for constructing ultra-large optical systems underscores his forward-looking vision for autonomous assembly in orbit. With a growing citation record and a focus on real-world robotic challenges, Zhan’s research is shaping the next generation of safe, adaptive, and intelligent space robots.
