（通讯员 付中涛）2023年7月20日下午，为开展学术交流与促进国际科研合作，机电工程学院、研究生院、国际合作与交流处发起邀请，伦敦国王学院助理教授Emmanouil Spyrakos-Papastavridis博士应邀做客我校研究生创新学术论坛，做了“Safe Physical Human-Robot Interaction based on Variable Impedance Control of Articulated-Soft Robots using Power-Shaping Signals”的学术报告。报告会由我校机电工程学院付中涛博士主持，学院部分研究生及本科生聆听了本次报告。
Spyrakos博士讲述了自己在机器人控制方面的工作，包括：柔性关节机器人、非线性控制、优化控制、类人机器人、四足机器人、阻抗控制以及人机交互控制等。他首先介绍了刚性关节机器人在工业应用中的局限性，为了确保安全性引入柔性关节机器人。接着分析了柔性关节机器人在交互、稳定性、安全性等在实践与理论方面所面临的挑战，重点分析了机器人笛卡尔空间与关节空间中变阻抗控制在人机交互的建模与系统稳定性，以及如何通过能量保持信息保证人机交互安全性，并在刷墙、设定轨迹进行了验证。最后，针对现场听众的提问，Spyrakos博士进行了详细的回答。
报告结束后，Spyrakos博士参观了制造智能化中心，并针对中英国际合作与交流项目（RS-NSFC）涉及的技术问题，和付中涛博士进行了详细的探讨，并给出了具体的解决方案。
