About

Jiuhong Ruan is a pioneering researcher in the field of bionic robotics, with a primary focus on the design, simulation, and control of legged and mobile robots. His most significant contributions lie in the development of highly dynamic and high-payload quadruped robots, as evidenced by his landmark review paper on mammal bionic quadruped robots (95 citations) and his foundational work on the design and simulation of a hydraulic actuated quadruped robot (137 citations). These works have shaped the understanding of how to achieve robust, agile locomotion in complex terrains. Ruan has also advanced control theory, notably through his study on Active Disturbance Rejection Control (ADRC) for mobile robot lateral navigation, addressing critical challenges in precision and adaptability under uncertainty. His recent work extends to dynamic whole-body locomotion for wheeled biped robots on uneven terrain, showcasing his continued innovation. By integrating virtual reality and symbolic computation in gait simulation systems, Ruan has provided essential tools for the robotics community. With over 249 total citations, his research remains a cornerstone for students and engineers seeking to build the next generation of highly capable, bio-inspired robots.
