About
Stephanie Kahms is a researcher advancing the frontier of soft robotics, with a focus on computational modeling and simulation of soft material systems. Her work addresses a critical challenge in the field: accurately predicting the behavior of highly deformable robots to enable safe, reliable interaction with unstructured environments. Kahms’s most-cited paper, “Investigating frictional contact behavior for soft material robot simulations” (2023, 15 citations), tackles the complex physics of contact mechanics in soft robots—a key factor for applications like human-robot collaboration and delicate object manipulation. Her earlier study, “A Preliminary Study of Soft Material Robotic Modelling: Finite Element Method and Cosserat Rod Model” (2021, 11 citations), provides foundational insights by comparing two dominant modeling approaches, helping researchers choose the right tool for design and control. Together, these works have garnered over 25 citations, establishing Kahms as a contributor to the growing body of knowledge on soft robot simulation. Her research is particularly valuable for students and engineers seeking to bridge the gap between theoretical models and practical, real-world soft robotic systems.
