Silvio Cocuzza is Associate Professor in Mechanics of Machines (which includes Robotics and Mechatronics) at University of Padova (UNIPD). Formerly, he was Researcher at UNIPD, Lecturer in Control Systems/Industrial Automation at Queen’s University Belfast (UK), and Research Associate in Robotics and Mechatronics at UNIPD and University of Strathclyde (UK). Silvio’s principal research interests are: aerial manipulators; space robotics; industrial robotics; biorobotics. His major research achievements are in the field of space robotics (in which he is a major expert), where he carried out a pioneering work on the minimum reactions/energy control of space manipulators. In the recent years he started to research on dynamic balancing of aerial manipulators and on UAV and robot vibrations. In particular, he is the Principal Investigator of the research project “DynAeRobot-Development and validation of a new dynamically balanced aerial manipulator” funded by UNIPD, which is carried out in collaboration with TU Delft (NL), University of York (UK), and Queen Mary University of London (UK). He is also Guest Editor of the Special Issue “Advances in Aerial, Space, and Underwater Robotics” of the journal MDPI Applied Sciences. He is a member of the European research network euRobotics. He has authored more than 60 papers published in international journals and conferences, and participated to several international projects funded by EU, EPSRC, Innovate UK, ESA, ESO, and NASA.
