Current research interests
My research interests are focused on optimization-based control and real-time optimization. Especially, I am interested in the following topics:
- real-time optimization of uncertain nonlinear processes,
- nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC),
- turnpike properties of optimal control problems and their use in economic MPC,
- reference-tracking and path-following problems.
I am interested in applying these control methods to energy systems, chemical process, aeronautics, and mechatronics/robotics.
Besides my employment at EPFL, I hold a position a senior research associate at the Institute for Applied Informatics, Karlsruhe Institute of Technology. There I lead the group Advanced Control.
