About

Nurhazimah Nazmi is a researcher at the forefront of soft robotics and rehabilitation engineering, specializing in the development of intelligent materials and control systems for assistive devices. Her work uniquely bridges material science and biomedical engineering, focusing on magnetorheological (MR) foams and plastomers for soft sensors and actuators, as well as gait analysis for lower-limb rehabilitation. Her most-cited paper, “A Review on the Control of the Mechanical Properties of Ankle Foot Orthosis for Gait Assistance” (2019, 39 citations), provides a comprehensive overview of how robotics can enhance post-stroke rehabilitation, establishing her as a key voice in the field. Nazmi has also pioneered the use of machine learning, including extreme learning machines, to predict the magnetostriction behavior of MR foams—a critical step for designing responsive soft robotic components. Her exploration of fuzzy logic controllers for classifying walking patterns from EMG signals (2016, 7 citations) further demonstrates her commitment to intuitive, adaptive control systems. By integrating hydrogel-based MR plastomers with graphite for force sensing, she is advancing the next generation of tactile sensors. With a growing citation record and a focus on translating smart materials into practical rehabilitation tools, Nazmi’s work is shaping the future of wearable assistive technology.
