About
Mohammed O. M. AbdulRazic is a robotics researcher specializing in the design and optimization of lightweight, torque-efficient industrial manipulators. His work focuses on minimizing computational complexity in torque optimization and developing novel mechanical architectures that reduce actuator load. In his most cited paper (2016, 11 citations), AbdulRazic proposed a light-weight three-degree-of-freedom (DOF) planar manipulator, demonstrating how accurate torque calculation prevents actuator overload and enables safer, lighter robotic arms. His follow-up work (2019, 8 citations) introduced a groundbreaking design where all motors are housed at the base rather than on the links themselves, significantly reducing arm weight and simplifying control by eliminating the need for each motor to support the weight of subsequent actuators. This approach addresses a fundamental challenge in robotics: the trade-off between payload capacity and arm mass. AbdulRazic’s contributions have direct implications for industrial automation, where lighter, more efficient manipulators can improve speed, energy consumption, and safety. His research bridges theoretical torque optimization with practical mechanical design, offering scalable solutions for modern manufacturing environments.
