Research interests
Dynamics, controls, modeling, optimization, and scalability and robustness aspects
of controls implementation (embedding) in distributed (and mobile) systems. Nonlinear
controls, optimal control, guidance and optimal trajectory generation, chatter-free
variable structure controls, adaptive control. Application areas of interest -- many,
including robotic systems, ground vehicles, aircraft, rotorcraft, satellites.
