About
Pascaline Hamon is a leading researcher in robotics, with a primary focus on the dynamic identification and modeling of robotic systems. Her major contributions center on advancing friction models for robot joints, particularly by demonstrating that dry friction is not a constant, but depends linearly on the load and velocity—a refinement grounded in the Coulomb law. This work, most notably in her highly cited 2010 paper (40 citations), provides a more accurate framework for predicting and compensating for friction in robotic transmissions, directly improving control precision and simulation fidelity. By integrating load-dependent dry friction with traditional viscous models, Hamon has helped bridge the gap between theoretical dynamics and real-world robotic performance. Her research is essential for engineers developing high-precision robots, where even small friction modeling errors can degrade accuracy. Through these contributions, Hamon has established herself as a key figure in the practical advancement of robot identification and control.
