About
Qiaolian Xie is a pioneering researcher in rehabilitation robotics, with a primary focus on developing intelligent, human-centered exoskeleton systems for upper limb recovery. Her work spans soft robotics, human-robot interaction, and assistive technologies for neurological rehabilitation. Xie’s most influential contribution is the design of a soft bionic elbow exoskeleton using shape memory alloy (SMA) spring actuators, which mimics human muscle behavior through temperature-driven phase changes—a novel approach that has garnered 23 citations. She also developed a powered exoskeleton integrated with a wheelchair for stroke rehabilitation (19 citations) and proposed an innovative equivalent kinematic model of the human upper limb to enhance trajectory planning in exoskeleton robots (7 citations). Her research further addresses critical challenges in human-robot coupling dynamics and data imbalance in simulation-to-reality (Sim2Real) transfer for soft robot-assisted rehabilitation. Notably, Xie has expanded into dementia care, developing mobile home monitoring systems for behavioral and psychological symptoms. With a growing citation record and a portfolio that bridges engineering innovation and clinical application, Xie is advancing the frontier of accessible, adaptive rehabilitation technologies.
