About
Lian Lian is a researcher specializing in marine robotics and underwater autonomous systems, with a focus on bio-inspired and efficient underwater vehicle design. Her work bridges the gap between Unmanned Surface Vessels (USVs) and Autonomous Underwater Vehicles (AUVs), particularly through her pioneering research on positive buoyancy diving autonomous vehicles. Her most cited paper (2022, 9 citations) introduces dynamic modeling and optimal control strategies for vehicles that combine surface and underwater capabilities, enabling more efficient marine measurement and monitoring. This work also explores novel positive buoyancy diving techniques for underwater robots, contributing to the development of more energy-efficient and versatile autonomous platforms. In her more recent work (2024, 4 citations), Lian addresses practical environmental challenges by designing an underwater dredging robot for cleaning long-distance water conveyance tunnels. This robot targets the removal of *Limnoperna fortunei* and other biofouling organisms that degrade water quality over time. Through simulation and experimental validation, her research demonstrates the potential for autonomous systems to solve real-world infrastructure maintenance problems. Lian Lian’s contributions are advancing the field of underwater robotics, combining theoretical modeling with practical applications in environmental monitoring and infrastructure management.
