About

Dr. Du Xu is a leading researcher in robotic manufacturing and intelligent control, specializing in the precision processing of complex components. His work centers on developing advanced robotic systems for polishing, grinding, and assembly, with a particular focus on vibration control, stiffness modulation, and force estimation. Dr. Xu’s most significant contributions include the modelling and vibration control of magnetorheological-based polishing tools (21 citations), which has set a benchmark for robotic surface finishing. He also pioneered a hybrid compliant control with variable-stiffness wrist for assembly and grinding applications (9 citations), and a grinding force estimation and control strategy using variable impedance (7 citations). Notably, his continuous stiffness control strategy for misalignment shaft-hole assembly, utilizing a super-elastic Ni-Ti wire compliant wrist, offers a novel solution to a longstanding industrial challenge. Dr. Xu’s work on redundant composite polishing robots with triangular parallel mechanisms (6 citations) and rules-reduced fuzzy neural network learning control (6 citations) further demonstrates his commitment to enhancing robotic precision and adaptability. With a growing citation record and a focus on practical, high-impact applications, Dr. Xu is a rising authority in intelligent robotic manufacturing.
