"Nothing has such power to broaden the mind as the ability to investigate systematically and truly all that comes under thy observation in life. "

-Marcus Aurelius

About Me, an Introduction

A graduate student of mechanical engineering at the University of Texas in Austin. Currently working on power system stability with nonlinear loading for electric ship conversion. I've been dealing heavily with control theory, optimization, power systems, system synthesis, and system dynamic modeling. As such, these have become little areas of expertise for me.

I'm also an avid musician and for a complete list of my musical interest, check out the user boxes.

Education, Research, and Industry

My research interests broadly lie in the areas of system dynamics and controls with applications to electromechanical and biological systems. Other personal areas of interests are intelligent systems/actuators and system synthesis techniques. The subsequent section details my current research project as a graduate student. The final section summarizes research projects I was involved with as an undergraduate research assistant.

Selected Edits

Guys, this is embarrassing. Ever since I started this new account, I have no edits. That should change in a few weeks... or so I hope!

Monitored Articles

Apparently I am lazy, as I currently am not monitoring/watching any articles. Once I decide, however, this section will be updated. Note: I'm going to clean up Bond_graphs page soon, as it is pretty terrible at the moment.

Currently none! Hopefully, I'll start one sooner or later.

"There is but one truly serious philosophical problem and that is suicide. Judging whether life is or is not worth living amounts to answering the fundamental question of philosophy. All the rest — whether or not the world has three dimensions, whether the mind has nine or twelve categories — comes afterwards. These are games; one must first answer."

-Albert Camus
