Fall 2011
The large number of control loops in a modern industrial plant poses a serious challenge for operators and engineers to monitor these loops to maintain them at optimal conditions continuously. Much research has been done on control loop performance assessment and monitoring of individual...

Fall 2013
Helicopter Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) present a challenging control problem since their dynamics are nonlinear, underactuated and non-minimum phase. Although it is inherently an applied research field, due to the difficulty of building and maintaining an experimental platform relatively few...

The non-local stabilization of nonlinear systems by output feedback is a challenging problem that remains the subject of continuing investigation in control theory. In this thesis we develop two globally asymptotically stabilizing output feedback algorithms for multivariable nonlinear systems....

Spring 2022
This thesis research concerns controlling viscous fingering instability when a less-viscous fluid pushes another more-viscous one in a porous medium. This instability is called the Saffman-Taylor instability and has been extensively studied, primarily for simple Newtonian fluids. The resultant of...
