Research description:
Current research is focused primarily on a
systematic framework for modeling and analysis
of hybrid systems, with power systems providing
an important (but not exclusive) applications
base. Algorithms for solving inverse problems,
such as parameter estimation, parameter
uncertainty, boundary value problems, and optimal
control, are being pursued. These algorithms build
largely on trajectory sensitivities, so efficient
methods of solving variational equations for
hybrid systems are of great interest.
