About

Dongyi Li is a robotics researcher focused on advancing remote maintenance systems for nuclear fusion reactors, particularly the China Fusion Engineering Test Reactor (CFETR). His primary research areas include motion control, synchronization control, and mechanical design of specialized robots for hazardous environments. Li’s major contributions center on developing sophisticated control algorithms for CFETR’s Multi-Functional Maintenance Platform (MFMP) and Blanket Remote Maintenance Robot (BRMR). His most cited work (13 citations) introduces a Fuzzy-PID controller for the MFMP, simplifying the complex platform as a parallel robot for theoretical analysis. He has also pioneered synchronization control using Model Predictive Control with Cross-Coupling Compensation (MPC-CCC) and explored nonlinear model predictive control integrated with neural networks for BRMR motion. Notably, Li’s mechanical design of a dexterous bionic leg with a single-degree-of-freedom planar linkage offers a cost-effective alternative to multi-DOF robotic legs, reducing reliance on complex sensors and algorithms. His work directly supports the operational safety and efficiency of fusion reactor maintenance, with his citation record reflecting growing recognition in this specialized field. Li’s research bridges theoretical control methods with practical fusion engineering challenges, positioning him as a key contributor to next-generation remote handling technology.
