About
Jan Ola Strandhagen is a prominent researcher whose work sits at the intersection of autonomous mobile robotics, intralogistics, and smart manufacturing systems. Based at NTNU (Norwegian University of Science and Technology), Strandhagen has made substantial contributions to understanding how emerging technologies — particularly autonomous mobile robots (AMRs) — can transform logistics operations across manufacturing, warehousing, and healthcare settings. His most influential work includes a highly cited 2021 literature review on planning and controlling AMRs for intralogistics (604 citations), which has become a foundational reference in the field, and a 2020 study exploring how AMRs and smart intralogistics enhance flexibility and productivity within Industry 4.0 production networks (432 citations). Together, these papers have established him as a leading voice in the digitalization of physical logistics systems. Beyond manufacturing, Strandhagen has meaningfully extended AMR research into hospital logistics, examining sterile instrument transportation and autonomous material handling in clinical environments. His work on assistive technologies and decision support models for assembly further demonstrates his commitment to bridging research and practical implementation. With nearly 1,200 citations across his core papers, Strandhagen's research continues to shape both academic discourse and real-world industrial practice.
