Biography: Hongzhou Jiang received the M.S. degree and the Ph.D. degree in mechanical engineering from the Harbin Institute of Technology, Harbin, China, in 1996 and 2001, respectively. He is currently a Professor of mechanical engineering with the Harbin Institute of Technology. His research interests include parallel robotics, biologically inspired robotics, soft robotics, and hydraulic control systems. For multi-degrees of freedom hydraulic control systems, he proposed a modal space control method based on dynamic pressure feedback to enable the decomposition of complex multi-degrees of freedom systems into independent hydraulic subsystems, so that the bandwidths of the hydraulic driven multi-degrees of freedom system can be independently adjusted according to the vibration modes. For parallel mechanism design, he has put forward a dynamic isotropic design method based on the frequency characteristics to help the designers fully consider the impact of structural, inertial and damping parameters on the dynamic performance of the system in the design stage. In recent years, he has tried to combine flexible serial-parallel mechanisms with robotic fish to explore the relationship between vibration modes and swimming locomotion. This led to some interesting research results of a tensegrity robotic fish.
Biography: Sohrab Mirsaeidi received his Ph.D. degree in Electrical Engineering from Universiti Teknologi Malaysia (UTM), Malaysia in 2016. Subsequently, he furthered his Postdoctoral Fellowship at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Tsinghua University, China from 2016 to 2019. Currently, he is an Associate Professor at the School of Electrical Engineering, Beijing Jiaotong University (BJTU), China. Sohrab Mirsaeidi has published 60+ papers and 2 books in the field of Microgrids and Large-Scale Power Systems. He is a Member of the National Technical Committee of Measuring Relays and Protection Equipment Standardization of China and has been involved in several national research projects in China. He is an Editorial Board Member for several international journals and a Regular Reviewer for IEEE Transactions journals. He has also served as Chair, Keynote/Invited Speaker, and Technical Committee Member in 50+ international conferences. His main research interests include Control and Protection of Large-Scale Hybrid AC/DC Grids and Microgrids, Power System Stability, and Application of Power Electronics in Power Systems. He is a Member of IEEE, IET, CIGRE, and Chinese Society for Electrical Engineering (CSEE).
