About
Driven by the quest to make robots smaller, lighter, and more versatile, Jiaqi Wei is a pioneering researcher at the intersection of smart materials and precision actuation. Their work primarily focuses on two transformative areas: the development of miniature, multi-degree-of-freedom (multi-DOF) piezoelectric actuators and the enhancement of thermal properties in shape-memory polymer composites. Wei’s major contribution includes the design of a novel three-ring-shaped piezoelectric actuator, a breakthrough that enables compact, high-precision motion for small robot joints—a critical step toward agile, lightweight robotic systems. This work has already garnered 8 citations since its 2025 publication, signaling strong early impact. Complementing this, Wei has advanced the field of soft robotics by analyzing how interfacial parameters affect the thermal conductivity of silicon carbide (SiC)/shape-memory polyurethane (SMPU) composites. Their 2024 study, with 6 citations, provides essential insights for optimizing dual-drive (electrical and thermal) soft robots, directly improving actuation performance. By bridging material science and mechanical design, Jiaqi Wei is shaping the future of compact, intelligent robotics.
