About

Dr. Jiejian Di is a leading figure in bio-inspired robotics, with a primary focus on the design, modeling, and control of micro-robotic systems. His most significant contributions lie in the development of fast-moving, piezoelectric micro-robotic fish, a field in which he has achieved remarkable success. His seminal work, "Fast-moving piezoelectric micro-robotic fish with double caudal fins," has garnered 87 citations, establishing a new benchmark for speed and maneuverability in micro-robotic swimmers. Dr. Di’s research is distinguished by its rigorous analytical approach, as demonstrated in his highly cited paper on hydrodynamics modeling, where he derived the critical relationship between actuator displacement and fin oscillation. This work provides a foundational framework for optimizing the performance of such devices. Beyond aquatic locomotion, Dr. Di has also explored terrestrial bio-mimicry, contributing to the design of a bionic continuous hopping robot inspired by frog locomotion. His innovative use of C-shaped spring leaves for energy storage showcases his talent for translating biological principles into efficient mechanical designs. Through his pioneering work, Dr. Di continues to push the boundaries of what is possible in micro-robotics, inspiring a new generation of engineers.
