About

Xavier Dauptain is a researcher specializing in hydraulic control systems, autonomous freight vehicles, and robotics for urban logistics. His major contribution lies in advancing the automation of pallet handling robots, particularly through the development of hydraulic pressure-flow rate control systems that enhance the efficiency and reliability of freight delivery vehicles. His most-cited work, "Hydraulic Pressure-Flow Rate Control of a Pallet Handling Robot for an Autonomous Freight Delivery Vehicle" (2020), with 11 citations, details the upgrade of a pre-installed hydraulic system for the FURBOT (Freight Urban Robotic Vehicle) project. This work demonstrates his expertise in integrating automated forklift mechanisms with hydraulic power to enable seamless loading and unloading of cargo in autonomous delivery contexts. Dauptain’s research addresses critical challenges in urban freight mobility, contributing to the broader goal of sustainable and intelligent transportation systems. His achievements reflect a practical, engineering-driven approach to robotics and fluid power control, making his work valuable for students and researchers interested in autonomous vehicle design, hydraulic actuation, and logistics automation.
