About

Rafika El Harabi is a control systems researcher whose work focuses on intelligent navigation and fuzzy logic control for complex robotic systems. Her most-cited paper, "Fuzzy control of a mobile robot with two trailers" (2012, 5 citations), introduces a control strategy that uses fuzzy logic to enable stable and accurate navigation for articulated mobile robots, such as a truck with two trailers. This approach allows the robot to reach a predefined target and avoid obstacles using only partial state measurement feedback, addressing key challenges in nonholonomic system control. While her citation count is modest, her contributions are significant in the niche field of fuzzy control for multi-trailer mobile robots, where precise maneuvering is critical. Her work demonstrates a practical application of intelligent control theory to real-world robotic systems, offering a foundation for further research in autonomous vehicle navigation and articulated vehicle control.
