Professor in Marine Control Engineering since August 2009
Research interests include: autonomous ships, dynamic positioning systems, and energy/power management systems for hybrid-electric vessels
Focus areas: dynamic positioning of marine vessels, control of shipboard hybrid-electric power systems, and motion control of single and formation vessels
Develops energy-optimal, safe automatic control systems under environmental loads such as wind, currents, waves, and ice
Works on Arctic stationkeeping, ice management, and the vision of zero-emission shipping
