About
Coen van Gulijk is a leading researcher in system safety and human factors engineering, with a particular focus on the complex interactions between humans, technology, and organizations. His work is instrumental in understanding how cooperative robots (cobots) affect workplace safety, a critical area as automation becomes more prevalent. Van Gulijk’s major contribution is the development of a system-dynamic model for human-robot interaction, which synthesizes pre-existing knowledge on human, technological, and organizational factors to capture the intricate, often unpredictable dynamics of these systems. This model, detailed in his highly cited 2023 paper, offers a novel framework for solving the “puzzle” of complex interactions in collaborative workspaces. Beyond this, his research has significant implications for designing safer, more resilient industrial environments. With a career dedicated to bridging theory and practice, van Gulijk’s work is essential reading for students and researchers in safety science, robotics, and human factors, providing a robust foundation for future studies on the socio-technical challenges of Industry 4.0.
