About
Kasemsak Uthaichana is a leading researcher in the field of robotics and control systems, with a primary focus on the stabilization and traction control of wheeled mobile robots (WMRs). His major contributions center on addressing the critical challenge of wheel slippage, a phenomenon that can severely compromise the stability and maneuverability of autonomous vehicles. To tackle this, Uthaichana pioneered the application of **Hybrid Model Predictive Control (HMPC)** , a sophisticated framework that models WMRs as hybrid systems—accounting for both continuous dynamics and discrete modes of operation, such as varying traction conditions. His seminal 2013 paper on this topic has garnered **49 citations**, underscoring its influence in the field. Earlier foundational work from 2007, which laid the groundwork for stabilizing WMRs to predefined sets under slippage, has also been widely recognized with **17 citations**. By integrating rechargeable battery packs and electric drive dynamics into his control models, Uthaichana’s research not only advances theoretical control methodologies but also has practical implications for autonomous navigation in challenging, real-world environments.
