Control

Our research capabilities in Control are mainly focused on the development of advanced control methodologies and novel application techniques to tackle various control challenges in both aeronautical and automotive engineering. Our key aims are to improve dynamic performance, efficiency, robustness and safety of different dynamical systems.

Activities we address include but are not limited to:

  • Nonlinear control theory
  • State estimation and sensor optimisation
  • Disturbance observer based control
  • Optimisation based control
  • Fault diagnosis and fault tolerance control
  • Vehicle dynamics and control
  • Flight dynamics and control
  • Automotive powertrain control
  • Control strategy for electrical and hybrid vehicles
  • Control and decision making for autonomous systems
