The modeling and control of nonlinear systems in the process and mechatronic industry. Based on pioneering contributions e.g. in the field of system identification that group is invited to participate in nationall and internationally sponsored research projects. The group has 2 vacancies for a Ph.D. student and a postdoctoral fellow. Both for a period of 4 years. The goal of the project is to develop a fault tolerant controller design framework making use of the latest developments in the areas of hybrid system theory, neural networks and fuzzy logic.
Application domains are vehicle technology, aerospace manipulators and process industry.
Prior knowledge in both the fundamental and application domains is desired. The deadline for application is Nov. 15, 1997.
