报告人简介：

Grigore GOGU obtained his engineering degree in mechanical engineering at University Transylvania Brasov, Romania, in 1976. After three years of gathered experience in industry, he was appointed as assistant professor at UTB, where he obtained a first PhD degree in dynamics of machine-tools (1983) and a second PhD in robotics (1995). He became professor and head of the Department of Machine Elements, Mechanisms and Robotics at UTB. Since 1996 he was appointed as professor at French Institute for Advanced Mechanics in Clermont-Ferrand France. He was the director of the Mechanical Engineering Research Group (2008-2011) a joint research laboratory of Blaise Pascal University and French Institute for Advanced Mechanics. In October 2008 he was awarded a Doctor Honoris Causa of Politehnica University of Timisoara. He is associate editor of two international journals (Mechanisms and Machine Theory, Mechanics & Industry) and member in the editorial board of other two journals (Chinese Journal of Mechanical Engineering, Romanian Journal of Technical Sciences. Applied Mechanics). Actual research topics are: robot kinematics and dynamics, structural synthesis, singularity analysis, parallel robots, spatial mechanisms with applications in high speed machining and car suspension mechanisms. He is the author of 8 books (published by Springer, Hèrmes and Ed. Tehnica), 25 book chapters (published by Springer, Kluwer Academic Publishers, Trans Tech Publications) more than 250 scientific papers and 30 patents, protected in more than 100 countries, in the field of mechanisms and robotic manipulators.

报告摘要：

This invited talk focuses on the presentation of morphological research and evolutionary morphology as the key approaches in systematic engineering innovation. The morphological research was proposed by Fritz Zwicky, one of the most brilliant astrophysicists of all times, in his book Discovery, Invention, Research, Macmillan, New York, 1969. He proposed a generalized form of morphological box including not only the study of the shapes of geometrical, geological, biological, and generally material structures, but also to study the more abstract structural interrelations among phenomena, concepts, and ideas, whatever their character might be. Evolutionary morphology was firstly proposed by the author of this talk in the book chapter Evolutionary morphology: a structured approach to inventive engineering design, in Advances in Integrated Design and Manufacturing in Mechanical Engineering, Bramley, A, Brissaud, D., Coutellier, D., and McMahon, C. (Eds), pp. 389-402, Springer, Dordrecht, 2005, and developed later in author’s book Structural Synthesis of Parallel Robots, Part 1: Methodology, Springer, Dordrecht, 2008. Evolutionary morphology was successfully applied by the author to structural synthesis of innovative serial and parallel robots and car suspension mechanism as well. This systematic structural synthesis approach has allowed the author to propose for the first time in the literature serial robots with only isolated singularities, fully-isotropic parallel robots with various motions of the moving platform and car suspensions mechanisms for controlling the camber of the wheels on a bend.
