Yuhao Huang

I'm an incoming PhD student in Mechanical Engineering and Materials Science at Duke University, specializing in robotics under the supervision of Prof. Boyuan Chen. I hold an M.S. in Mechanical Engineering from the University of Wisconsin–Madison and a B.S. in Electromechanical Engineering from the University of Macau.

Research

My research focuses on both model-based and data-driven methods for legged robot control. At the Wisconsin Expedious LeggedAI (WELL) Lab with Prof. Xiaobin Xiong, I applied nonlinear and data-driven control theory to synthesize robust locomotion behaviors. Previously, at the Soft Sensors-Actuators-Robots Lab under Prof. Junwen Zhong, I developed novel self-powered piezoelectret sensor technologies for industrial applications. Beyond research, I enjoy calligraphy, basketball, and mindfulness practices.
