Research Interests

I am interested in feedback control of dynamical systems. I specialise in the analysis, synthesis and design of robust control laws for (linear and nonlinear) dynamical systems with only partially known mathematical models (i.e. possessing unmodelled dynamics). I am interested in both fundamental mathematical control theory and also application of advanced control methods to hardware experiments.

Robust & nonlinear feedback control

• Robust control - incl. passivity, dissipativity, IQCs

• Nonlinear control - via input-output methods

• Control of negative imaginary systems

• Fundamentals of feedback control theory

• Applications to complex dynamics (e.g. robotics, UAVs, motion systems)
