Research area: Game Theory and Reinforcement Learning applications. 

I am developing a game theoretical simulation framework using the combination of reinforcement learning and level-k reasoning concept to evaluate the safety and performance metrics of the simulated environment.

Research area: Adaptive control allocation.

My research is mainly focused on the design of adaptive control
allocation in over-actuated systems with actuator rate and position
constraints. Our proposed adaptive control allocation can handle
actuator loss of effectiveness without using fault identification.

Research area: Human-Adaptive Controller Interaction

My research is focused on human-in-the-loop telerobotics systems. Telerobotics system has feedforward and feedback telecommunication time delays, inevitability. In addition to that, I consider the human operator as an element of the overall closed loop system dynamics; my goal is to show mathematically how the human operator and the rest of the telerobotics system interact with each other, and how the human reaction time delay and telecommunication time delays affect the stability and performance of the closed loop system.

       Research area: Adaptive control and its applications
                                                
           My research focuses on developing a ground test facility for rocket testing to                          simulate the actual flight conditions on earth using a connected pipe test setup
           ,so that the rocket testing could be made possible on earth.
