About
Dr. Selina Meier is a leading researcher in the field of heavy vehicle automation and control systems, with a particular focus on the complex dynamics of large vehicle-manipulator platforms. Her work bridges the gap between advanced control theory and practical off-road machinery, addressing the unique challenges of hydraulic working arms in unstructured environments. Her most-cited paper, "Model Predictive Control and Trajectory Optimization of Large Vehicle-Manipulators" (2019, 22 citations), introduces a novel model predictive control (MPC) framework for mid-sized heavy-duty vehicles. A key innovation is the use of a local reference coordinate system, which significantly improves stability and precision during on- and off-road operations. This contribution is critical for applications in construction, agriculture, and forestry, where vehicle-manipulator systems must navigate rough terrain while performing delicate tasks. Dr. Meier’s work is recognized for its practical impact, offering a scalable solution that enhances safety and efficiency in autonomous heavy machinery. Her research continues to influence the development of robust, real-time control strategies for next-generation industrial vehicles.
