About

I am a Robotics Ph.D. candidate at Oregon State University. I am in the Laboratory for Robotics and Applied Mechanics (LRAM) lab, advised by Prof. Ross L. Hatton. I received a B.S. and M.S. in mechanical engineering from Korea University in 2018 and 2021, respectively.

My research interests are understanding dynamics of robotic systems via a geometric mechanics, specifically relates developing a general control framework for locomotion systems based on motion primitives (i.e., maneuver) to achieve an efficient joint-level motion control as well as a computationally inexpensive high-level motion planning.

Keywords of my interests are:

• Geometric mechanics
• Trajectory optimization
• Riemannian Variational Calculus
• Robust control
