About
Dr. Yurui Duan is a pioneering researcher in space robotics, whose work redefines how autonomous systems navigate and operate in the extreme environment of outer space. Her primary research areas lie at the intersection of nonlinear dynamics, geometric mechanics, and advanced control theory, with a specific focus on the unified modelling and trajectory tracking of space robots. Dr. Duan’s major contribution is her groundbreaking approach to treating a spacecraft’s position and attitude not as separate problems, but as a single, continuous manifold on the Lie group SE(3). By developing a dynamic model and control strategy that respects this geometric structure, she has solved a fundamental challenge: enabling robots to track continuous, time-varying trajectories in six degrees of freedom without the instabilities caused by traditional decoupled methods. While her most-cited paper, "Dynamic Modelling and Continuous Trajectory Tracking Control of Space Robots Based on Lie Group SE(3)" (2023), has garnered 2 citations, its conceptual impact is significant, laying the mathematical foundation for a new generation of more agile and precise orbital manipulators. This work positions her as a rising leader in geometric control for aerospace applications, promising safer and more efficient autonomous missions in the future.
