I am interested in mentoring students in translational research from the Systems Control Technology literature to practical implementations. Examples  include implementation of a deadbeat controller design with application to optimal defibrillator pulse synthesis; decoupling and MIMO optimal PI controllers for chemical processes; design of controllers to automate  a  heat  shrinking  device  for  cable  harnesses;  modeling and control of Stirling  engines;  co-simulation design of constrained PID controllers; and modeling and control of infectious disease.
