About

Shengjun Shi is a leading researcher in ultrasonic motor technology and fluid-structure interaction, with a focus on advancing robotic actuation systems for extreme environments. His most significant contribution is the development of a novel spherical stator multi-degree-of-freedom ultrasonic motor, which employs in-plane non-axisymmetric modes to achieve compact, high-precision motion—a breakthrough cited 52 times for its potential in robotics and precision engineering. Shi also explores energy harvesting and passive motion in fluid dynamics, as demonstrated in his study of two side-by-side flexible plates in 3D uniform flow (15 citations), where he revealed how aspect ratio and spacing influence coupling motion and energy capture. His practical engineering work includes a simple linear driving actuator for robotic arms designed for land-to-deep-sea transitions (11 citations), addressing challenges in underwater manipulation. Shi’s research bridges theoretical mechanics and applied design, offering scalable solutions for multi-DOF actuators and energy-efficient systems. His work is highly relevant for students and researchers in mechatronics, robotics, and fluid dynamics, showcasing how innovative motor designs and passive flow interactions can drive next-generation autonomous systems.
