About
Xiaoyi He is a leading researcher in sustainable urban logistics and autonomous delivery systems, with a focus on quantifying the environmental impacts of emerging transportation technologies. Her most-cited work, "Life Cycle Greenhouse Gas Emissions for Last-Mile Parcel Delivery by Automated Vehicles and Robots" (2021, 46 citations), provides a groundbreaking life cycle assessment of automated ground delivery systems during the COVID-19 pandemic. By evaluating the combined emissions of a last-mile vehicle and a final-50-feet robot, He demonstrated how robotic package delivery can reduce greenhouse gas emissions compared to traditional methods, offering critical insights for e-commerce and contactless delivery. This study has become a key reference for policymakers and industry leaders seeking to decarbonize last-mile logistics. He’s research bridges engineering, environmental science, and urban planning, helping to shape the future of sustainable automation. Her work is particularly notable for its timely relevance during the pandemic-driven surge in online shopping, making her a sought-after voice in the transition to greener, more efficient delivery networks.
