About

Jiping An is a researcher specializing in spacecraft dynamics and control, with a particular focus on modular self-reconfigurable spacecraft and robotic manipulator kinematics. Their most notable contribution is the development of an adaptive sliding mode control (ASMC) scheme based on time-delay estimation (TDE) technology, which addresses the complex challenge of reconstructing modular spacecraft in orbit—a problem where the floating base introduces strong dynamic coupling. This work, published in 2021, has garnered 12 citations and represents a significant advancement in autonomous space assembly. Additionally, An has made impactful contributions to robotics through the application of an improved particle swarm optimization (PSO) algorithm for solving inverse kinematics in manipulators without closed-form solutions. By incorporating the previous global optimal position into the velocity update rule, this 2020 study (7 citations) enhances convergence and solution accuracy. An’s research bridges theoretical control methods and practical robotic applications, offering valuable tools for future space missions and automation. Their work stands out for addressing real-world constraints in orbital operations and robotic manipulation, making it highly relevant for students and researchers in aerospace engineering and robotics.
