PhD Position in Dynamics and Control: Robust nonlinear control, Duiesburg-Essen, Germany
Job Description
Nonlinear control is one of the major issues in the last decades of development in control. Unfortunately this kind of approaches are not really relevant for practical purposes, due to their strong requirements to be made etc. The solution of the last years is mainly based on the improvement of the robustness of the approaches, leading to extended assumptions about modeling errors of the model usually assumed as to be known. Within this PhD topic the student is free to choose arbitrary new approaches, to extend them, to develop new ones or to extend the chairs compentence in robust nonlinear approaches based on robust disturbances observers or cognitive approaches. One assumption has to made: The developed approach MUST be connected with elastic mechanical systems, experiments have to show the success of the new approach.
Primarily related to: Prof. Söffker (Scientific supervisor: Prof. Söffker)
Specific prerequisites:
Bachelor and Master degree in Electrical or Mechanicval Engineering or Math necessary, deep interest in the field, excellent grades in control and dynamics
