Farhad Mehdifar

I am a Ph.D. Student affiliated with the Division of Decision and Control Systems (DCS) at KTH Royal Institute of Technology under the supervision of Prof. Dimos Dimarogonas and co-supervision of Prof. Charalampos Bechlioulis (from University of Patras, Greece).

My primary research interests include but are not limited to nonlinear control theory, cooperative control of multi-agent systems, control of autonomous robots and robotic manipulators, switching and hybrid systems, distributed optimization, optimization-based feedback control, and control applications for space systems.

My research is associated with the ERC-LEAFHOUND project. Starting in May 2021, I am working on funnel-based control design under high-level spatiotemporal specifications (e.g., signal temporal logic) for nonlinear and multi-agent systems.

I received my B.Sc. and M.Sc. Degrees in Electrical Engineering (Control Systems) from the University of Tabriz, Iran, in 2015 and 2018, respectively. From Jan 2019 till April 2021, I was a research assistant at INMA, ICTEAM institute at UCLouvain, Belgium.
