About
S. M. Bhagya is a robotics researcher specializing in autonomous inspection systems, with a particular focus on adhesion mechanisms for climbing robots. Her most-cited work, "Adhesion Risk Assessment of An Aircraft Inspection Robot for Improving Operator Awareness" (2022), addresses a critical challenge in deploying vacuum-adhesion-based robots for airplane maintenance. By developing a framework to assess the Risk of Adhesion (RoA) caused by factors like worn-out suction cups and surface irregularities, Bhagya enhances operator awareness and safety during inspection tasks. This contribution bridges the gap between robotic reliability and real-world operational hazards, supporting the growing demand for automated aircraft cleaning and inspection. With 2 citations to date, her work is gaining traction among researchers in field robotics and maintenance engineering. Bhagya’s research underscores the importance of risk-aware design in climbing robots, offering practical insights for improving system robustness and human-robot collaboration in industrial settings. Her efforts contribute to safer, more efficient inspection processes, positioning her as an emerging voice in applied robotics.
