About
Molong Duan is a pioneering roboticist whose work is reshaping construction automation through advanced control systems and additive manufacturing. His research centers on the intersection of robotics, structural fabrication, and dynamic system identification, with a particular focus on enabling robots to operate effectively in large-scale, unstructured environments. Duan's most significant contributions include the development of contact-force-based closed-loop control for 3D printing continuous-fiber-reinforced polymer composites, a breakthrough that enhances the structural integrity of additively manufactured shells. He has also advanced the field of cable-driven parallel robots, designing, modeling, and controlling these flexible systems for large-scale additive manufacturing, while optimizing their trajectory generation for superior disturbance rejection. His work on vibration compensation for boom-lift-mounted robots and dynamic force-position control for robotic bricklaying addresses critical challenges in real-world construction, ensuring precision and consistency despite complex dynamics. With his most-cited papers accumulating over 28 citations since 2023, Duan’s analytical approach to handling physical constraints in dynamic identification further underscores his commitment to rigorous, practical solutions. His achievements are paving the way for safer, more efficient, and highly automated construction processes.
