About

Somaye Mohammadi is a researcher in the field of legged locomotion and humanoid robotics, with a particular focus on the stability of passive dynamic walking systems. Her most cited work, "How local slopes stabilize passive bipedal locomotion?" (2016, 30 citations), investigates how terrain geometry can inherently contribute to gait stability without active control—a foundational insight for energy-efficient robotic walking. She extended this line of inquiry with her 2017 study on "Stability improvement of a dynamic walking system via reversible switching surfaces" (14 citations), which introduced novel control strategies to enhance robustness in bipedal robots. Mohammadi also contributed to the practical development of humanoid platforms, co-authoring "A soccer playing humanoid robot: Design, algorithm and prototype" (2014, 4 citations), which detailed the construction of an 18-servo humanoid equipped with a camera sensor for autonomous play. This work bridges theoretical stability analysis with real-world robotic design, supporting both research in dynamic locomotion and participation in competitive robotics. Her research offers valuable insights for students and engineers interested in passive dynamics, underactuated systems, and the intersection of mechanical design with control theory.
