About

Audelia G. Dharmawan is a robotics researcher whose work spans miniature robot design, robotic manufacturing, and human-robot interaction, making significant contributions across both small-scale and industrial robotic systems. She is perhaps best known for her pioneering work in piezoelectric-driven miniature robots, developing novel legged and climbing platforms that achieve locomotion and wall-climbing capabilities through ingenious mechanical designs, including four-bar linkages and bilayer dry adhesives — work that has collectively earned over 120 citations. Her ORION-II climbing robot demonstrated how compact platforms can be deployed for autonomous surveillance and reconnaissance in real-world environments. In parallel, Dharmawan has made substantial contributions to industrial robotics, particularly in robotic welding and additive manufacturing. Her model-based reinforcement learning framework for Wire Arc Additive Manufacturing (49 citations) represents a landmark advance in intelligent process control for metal 3D printing. Her earlier survey on portable welding platforms and subsequent work on seam tracking for large pipe structures (38 citations) reflect a sustained commitment to bringing automation to challenging, large-scale industrial environments. With over 270 total citations across a decade of research, Dharmawan has established herself as a versatile and impactful voice in modern robotics engineering.
