About

Shuang Peng is a robotics researcher whose work focuses on the intersection of hydraulic actuation and legged locomotion, with a particular emphasis on improving energy efficiency in robotic systems. Peng’s major contributions center on the application of digital hydraulics and hydraulic DC-DC converters to robotic actuation, most notably demonstrated in the development of the quadruped robot HyQ. Their pioneering work on the Hydraulic Buck Converter (HBC) for robotic leg actuation, published in 2013 (12 citations), showed how this approach could significantly enhance actuation efficiency compared to traditional methods. In earlier studies (2012), Peng conducted detailed performance assessments comparing servo and digital hydraulic valve systems for quadruped legs, and used co-simulation tools like AMESim and Simulink to evaluate multiple digital hydraulic configurations. While their citation counts are modest, Peng’s research represents foundational work in the emerging field of energy-efficient hydraulic robotics, providing critical insights for the design of more capable and sustainable legged robots. Their contributions remain relevant for researchers exploring advanced actuation strategies in robotics.
