My
main research focus is model reduction for fluids for the purpose of
designing closed-loop controllers. I have been working on the
application of Balanced Proper Orthogonal Decomposition (BPOD) to
transitional channel flow. The application of this method, which is a
close approximation of balanced truncation for large systems, has
resulted in models with promising premilinary results for closed-loop
control. Successful control of channel flow is a step towards
developing controllers for complex flows in complicated geometries
encountered in aircraft or other practical applications. |
