Hello 2023! MESA Lab 2022 updates
First of all, welcome two new Ph.D. students joined MESA Lab in Fall 2022. Osama and Shiang, welcome! Dr. Chen's sabbatical year ends Aug. 2023.
1/9/2023, Monday 5-6:30pm we had our first lab meeting. Welcome our visiting professor Dr. Norelys Aguila-Camacho! Jantz lunch, tea and snacks. Individual discussions (Norelys, Derek, and Rafal) were all wonderful. Then alarm on, then big rain.
For 2022, it was an unusual year, here are list of main items left in my memory
- Spring 2022, offered "ME/EECS210 Linear Multivariable Controls" (3 credits) all recorded lectures are in Youtube. Playlist upon request.
- Summer 2022, attended ACC2022 in Atlanta with Dr Dou and Daniel.
- Summer 2022, attended IFAC Mechatronics 2022 in UCLA. Drove there with Justus. Also Furkan for a 4 hours long tutorial on SPM (Smart Predictive Maintenance)
- Fall 2022, Sept. trip to Bratislava Slovakia to receive this prize. TV/news/magazine coverage. Public talk on "Fractional Order Thinking Leads to Research Excellence". Via Vienna and Warsaw. Talk at Wasaw University of Technology on "More optimal dampling control".
- Fall 2022, Oct. trip to Boston for IEEE DTPI 22. Presented two papers.
- Fall 2022, Nov. trip to TU Delft Netherlands and Luxembourg for IEEE ICCMA22. General co-chair.
- Fall 2022, Nov. - Dec. trip to Taipei for IEEE/ASME MESA22. Plenary talk on "Digital Twin enabled smart control engineering" DT for SCE. iFARM invited talk slides "Drone Research and Educational Excellence at UC Merced MESA Lab". (124MB)
