About
Xuepeng Li is a leading researcher in bio-inspired robotics, specializing in the design and locomotion of climbing and gliding robots. His work draws deep inspiration from the dynamic gaits of geckos and flying squirrels, translating biological principles into innovative mechanical systems. Li’s major contributions include the development of the Gecko-inspired mechanism with a Pendular waist and Linear legs (GPL) model, which replicates the pendular waist motion of geckos to enhance climbing efficiency and reduce energy consumption. His research on the wave gliding gait (WGG) model for flying squirrel-inspired robots explores novel air posture adjustments using deformable membrane wings, advancing the field of aerial robotics. With over 60 citations across his most-cited works, Li’s impact is evident in foundational papers such as “Effects of pendular waist on gecko’s climbing” (19 citations) and “The Gait Design and Trajectory Planning of a Gecko-Inspired Climbing Robot” (13 citations). He has also contributed to thrown robot design using flexible structures and parallel manipulator kinetostatics, showcasing a versatile approach to robotics. Li’s work is pivotal for students and researchers interested in bio-mimetic locomotion, offering practical insights for developing agile, energy-efficient robots.
