About
Xuedong Chen is a researcher whose work spans two distinct yet technically sophisticated domains: marine engineering and robotics. In the field of hydrodynamics, Chen has made notable contributions to the analysis of ducted propeller performance, developing an innovative computational approach that combines Multi-Block Hybrid Mesh with the Reynolds Stress Model (MBHM & RSM). This methodology demonstrates improved precision over conventional two-equation turbulence models, offering meaningful advances in the accuracy of marine propulsion system analysis. His 2015 paper on this topic has garnered 8 citations, reflecting its value to the computational fluid dynamics and naval architecture communities. Earlier in his career, Chen contributed to the foundational challenges of quadruped robotics, addressing the complex problems of joint position determination, stability judgment, and swing leg selection for omnidirectional crawling robots. His 1999 work, cited 7 times, provided an efficient framework for deriving actuation variables to satisfy gait requirements — research that was ahead of its time given the subsequent explosion of interest in legged robotics. Together, these contributions reveal a researcher with a broad technical range, capable of applying rigorous mathematical and computational thinking across mechanical and engineering systems.
