About Ruwanthika
Dr. Ruwanthika Rathnayake Mudiyanselage, professionally known as Dr. R.M.M. Ruwanthika or Dr. R.M. Maheshi Ruwanthika, serves as Senior Lecturer Grade II in the Department of Electrical Engineering within the Faculty of Engineering at the University of Moratuwa, Sri Lanka. She obtained her BSc in Electrical Engineering and MSc in Electrical Engineering from the University of Moratuwa. She completed her PhD at Keio University, Japan, under the supervision of Prof. Seiichiro Katsura at the Department of System Design Engineering, with research centered on excess force reduction in bilateral control for precise and safe operation. Joining the University of Moratuwa in 2015 as Lecturer (Probationary), she progressed to Senior Lecturer Grade II effective March 23, 2022, following study leave for her doctoral studies, resuming duties on August 10, 2022.
Her academic interests encompass advanced motion control and haptics, with a focus on bilateral teleoperation systems, force control, and safety enhancements in robotic interactions. Notable publications include 'Safe operation of scaling bilateral control system under application of excessive force by operator' (Mechatronics, 2022), 'Excess Force Reduction in Bilateral Control for Precise and Safe Operation' (IEEJ Journal of Industry Applications, 2022), 'Precise slave-side force control for security enhancement of bilateral motion control during application of excessive force by operator' (Precision Engineering, 2020), 'Computer Vision Based Fire Alarming System' (Moratuwa Engineering Research Conference, 2016), and 'Remote Gripping for Effective Bilateral Teleoperation' (Handbook of Research on Human-Computer Interfaces, 2016). Recent contributions feature 'Development of Sensorless Based Bimanual Tele-Rehabilitation Robot for Hemiparetic Post-Stroke Patients' (Moratuwa Engineering Research Conference, 2024) and 'Haptic Based Surface Texture Classification Using Machine Learning Techniques' (2023). She has served as a reviewer for EECon 2024. Her work advances safe human-robot interfaces, tele-rehabilitation, and precision engineering applications.
