About
Yong-Chen Pei is a researcher specializing in magnetic actuation and shape memory alloy (SMA) technologies, with a focus on developing innovative robotic systems for medical and industrial applications. His work centers on two key areas: magnetic micro-robots driven by permanent magnetic actuators (PMAs) and SMA-based modular robot joints. Pei’s major contributions include the design of a novel reciprocating PMA that enables magnetic micro-robots to clear blockages in fluid pipes—a concept with potential for treating vascular clots and industrial pipe maintenance. His 2021 paper on this actuator has garnered 10 citations, highlighting its impact in the growing field of magnetic manipulation. Additionally, Pei has advanced SMA technology with a resistance-only monitoring method for adaptive control (2025, 3 citations) and developed a universal-joint robot module driven by SMA wires (2023, 3 citations), addressing challenges in modular robotics. His work on an impacting robot for pipe blockage removal (2025) further demonstrates practical applications. With a cumulative citation count reflecting steady recognition, Pei’s research bridges fundamental electromagnetic principles and real-world robotic solutions, offering valuable insights for students and researchers in mechatronics and biomedical engineering.
