About

Xiuyu He is a robotics and control systems researcher whose work spans two interrelated domains: flexible robotic manipulator control and bio-inspired flapping-wing aerial robotics. He has made significant contributions to the development of partial differential equation (PDE)-based boundary control strategies for flexible robotic systems, addressing challenging real-world nonlinearities such as input backlash, actuator saturation, and external disturbances. His 2018 paper on PDE model-based boundary control for flexible manipulators has become a landmark reference in the field, accumulating over 240 citations and demonstrating the practical value of distributed parameter system modeling. He has also advanced the Timoshenko beam framework for robotic arm dynamics, incorporating robust adaptive control laws and disturbance observers to ensure stable, precise manipulation under uncertain conditions. In parallel, He has emerged as a notable contributor to flapping-wing robot design, developing bio-inspired platforms capable of long endurance, autonomous airdrop, and high maneuverability—drawing on aerodynamic principles observed in natural fliers such as eagles and falcons. His flapping-wing research has garnered growing attention, with recent works collectively exceeding 130 citations. Across his portfolio, He demonstrates a rare ability to bridge rigorous mathematical control theory with innovative mechanical design, making his research valuable to engineers and researchers in robotics, aerospace, and autonomous systems.
