About

Jyotishka Duttagupta is a mechanical engineer specializing in robotics and automation, with a focused interest in the design and structural optimization of industrial manipulators. His research centers on the finite element analysis (FEA) of multi-degree-of-freedom robotic systems, particularly cylindrical manipulators, aiming to enhance their performance and durability for real-world applications. His most cited work, "Design and simulation of 6-DOF cylindrical robotic manipulator using finite element analysis" (2022, 11 citations), establishes a foundational methodology for simulating stress, deformation, and dynamic behavior in robotic arms. Building on this, his 2023 study investigates the structural design of 6-DOF cylindrical manipulators for automated agriculture, comparing materials like steel and aluminum under varied loading conditions to identify optimal configurations for outdoor, non-industrial environments. This shift from factory-floor robots to agricultural automation highlights Duttagupta’s contribution to expanding robotics into unstructured settings. His work is particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to apply FEA-driven design principles to create more robust, lightweight, and cost-effective robotic systems for emerging fields like precision farming.
