RESEARCH TOPICS

My research activities are focused on modeling, identification, control and monitoring of systems with complex dynamics such as parametric uncertainties, unknown disturbances, time-delays, nonlinearities, dynamic couplings and actuator dynamics, in order to improve the performance of controlled processes in stability, precision, robustness, disturbance rejection, autonomous functioning, etc.

Different model based control algorithms have been developed using robust control, predictive control, sliding mode control, backstepping control, QFT control, H2/H-infinity control, and adaptive control, and non-model based control algorithms have also been developed mainly using fuzzy logic control, neural network control and statistical control, etc.

The developed control methods have been successfully applied to different engineering fields:

- Storage technologies for renewable energy.

- Control and monitoring of wind turbines.

- Interoperability of energy data spaces for an optimized exploitation by producers and prosumers.

- Temperature control of industrial processes.

- Compensation of servo-drive mechanical resonance in large telescope.

- Estimation and control of the continuous fermentation of baker’s yeast.

- Vibration mitigation in civil engineering structures against earthquake and turbulent wind by using active and semiactive control.

- Vibration reduction in automotive suspension systems using MR damper.

- Vibration reduction in airplane landing gears using MR damper.

- Autonomous navigation of the mobile robot in unstructured environments.

- Robust fault-tolerant control of the blood glucose and patient-tailored solutions for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus.

- Data-based decision-making and visualization for complex systems and modeling and control with human-computer interaction.
