Visible to the public Trains, Planes, and Automobiles

Car and airplane designers each have lessons that they can teach the other. This paper concentrates on what we think automotive designers can learn from aircraft designers, with a short note on the converse. We will also consider some key issues that both disciplines need to work on.

Visible to the public Understanding Robustness of Battery Supported Cyber-Physical Systems

This research aims to introduce methods to analyze the robustness of battery supported cyber physical systems under co-designed control, scheduling, and battery management algorithms. Robustness refers to the ability to maintain system performance under perturbations. Robustness in controller design has been well defined and understood for a large class of feedback control systems, yet robustness of scheduling and battery management algorithms is relatively less understood.
