About

Changan Jiang is a robotics researcher whose work sits at the intersection of assistive robotics, control systems, and human-robot interaction, with a particular focus on addressing the growing demands of nursing care in aging societies. His most recognized contributions center on nonprehensile cooperative robotic manipulation, where he has developed sophisticated mathematical models and control strategies enabling dual-arm robots to maintain precise postural control of multi-link objects without relying on friction compensation — a technically challenging problem with direct implications for patient transfer and physical support tasks. Jiang's involvement in the development of ROBEAR, a high-functionality nursing-care assistant robot designed for patient lifting and standing assistance, highlights his commitment to translating theoretical advances into real-world caregiving applications. His research also extends to novel actuation technologies, including position control using tube-type dielectric elastomer actuators, and to adaptive, user-centered design frameworks that prioritize safety and comfort in physical human-robot interaction. With a body of work accumulating citations across both engineering and assistive technology domains, Jiang represents a thoughtful contributor to one of robotics' most socially consequential frontiers.
