Dr. Shangshang Wu | Engineering | Best Researcher Award

Tianjin university | China

Wu Shangshang is a mechanical engineer pursuing her Ph.D. at the School of Mechanical Engineering, Tianjin University in China, where she also completed her B.S. and M.S. in Mechanical Engineering. Her research focuses on underwater gliders, emphasizing hydrodynamic identification, motion behavior analysis, and front-end data processing for acoustic communication. Since her master’s studies, she has worked as a graduate researcher, contributing to both experimental sea trials and theoretical modeling, and has published journal articles and conference papers in marine robotics, acoustics, and signal processing. Wu’s doctoral work advances model-based and data-driven methods to improve hydrodynamic prediction and control under uncertain underwater conditions, supporting the development of reliable seabed vehicles and underwater communication systems. She collaborates closely with colleagues at Tianjin University, including researchers such as Guangwei Lv and Shaoqiong Yang, and her early contributions are gaining citations. Her interests also include neural network–based hybrid modeling, online estimation, and mitigating the effects of environmental factors like sea currents and noise on underwater navigation and sensor performance. While no specific awards are publicly documented, Wu shows strong potential in combining experimental insights with computational techniques to enhance the design, control, and stability of underwater gliders.
