Modeling, Optimization and Control of Networked Vehicles and Vehicle Fleets with Heterogeneous Drive Technologies in Real Time

Currently I am working within the collaborative project on Modeling, optimization and control of networked vehicles and vehicle fleets with heterogeneous drive technologies in real time (MORFAE) which is part of the BMBF program “Mathematics for Innovations”. Within this project I am working primarily on Multi-Level Iteration Schemes for Nonlinear Model Predictive Control. My collaboration partners are

• Prof. Dr. Ekaterina A. Kostina, Prof. Dr. Dr. h. c. mult. Hans Georg Bock, Dr. Andreas Sommer, Julian Niederer (Heidelberg University)
• Prof. Dr. Andreas Potschka, Dr. Christoph Hansknecht (Technical University Clausthal)
• Robert Bosch GmbH

At a workshop for this project I have given a talk about Real-Time Iterations and Multi-Level Iterations. The slides are available online.

Real-Time Iterations for Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of Semilinear Parabolic PDEs

Previously, I have worked with

• Prof. Dr. Ekaterina A. Kostina (Heidelberg University)
• Prof. Dr. Andreas Potschka (Technical University Clausthal)
• Prof. Dr. Karl Worthmann, Jun. Prof. Dr. Manuel Schaller (Technical University Ilmenau)

on Real-Time Iterations for Nonlinear Model Predictive Control of Semilinear Parabolic PDEs.

Cellular Automata in the Modeling of Infections

At the end of my Bachelor’s studies I worked together with Dr. Cordula Reisch on Cellular Automata in the Modeling of Infections. This work resulted in my Bachelor thesis and a conference contribution.
