V. K. Petrov

About

V. K. Petrov is a specialist in robotic assembly, with a particular focus on active adaptation and precision joining techniques. His research centers on the mechanics of “shaft-sleeve” joints, especially the identification of shaft position during chamfer contact—a critical phase in automated assembly. Petrov’s major contribution lies in developing a two-point contact model for robotic assembly, analyzed in a quasi-static formulation, which bridges theoretical mechanics with practical robotic control. In his experimental work, he employs robots equipped with force and torque sensors to validate these models, demonstrating strong consistency between theoretical predictions and physical outcomes. His most-cited papers, including “Active adaptation in robotic assembly” (2017) and “Analyzing the Methods Identification Shaft Position in Active Robotic Assembly of ‘Shaft-Sleeve’ Joints with Chamfer Contact” (2021), have each garnered 3 citations, reflecting their foundational role in this niche area. Petrov’s work is notable for its rigorous integration of sensor-based feedback and contact mechanics, offering practical insights for improving the reliability and efficiency of robotic assembly in manufacturing.
