Autorenporträt

Dr. Ranjan Vepa earned his PhD in applied mechanics from Stanford University, Stanford, California, specialising in the area of aeroelasticity under the guidance of the late Professor Holt Ashley. He currently serves as a Reader in Aerospace Engineering in the School of Engineering and Material Science, Queen Mary University of London, where he has also been the programme director of the Avionics Programme since 2001. He is the author of seven books titled: Electric Aircraft Dynamics: A Systems Engineering Approach (CRC Press, 2020), Dynamics and Control of Autonomous Space Vehicles and Robotics (Cambridge University Press, 2019), Nonlinear Control of Robots and Unmanned Aerial Vehicles: An Integrated Approach (CRC Press, 2016), Flight Dynamics Simulation and Control of Aircraft: Rigid and Flexible (CRC Press, 2014), Dynamic Modelling, Simulation and Control of Energy Generation (Springer, 2013), Dynamics of Smart Structures (Wiley, 2010) and Biomimetic Robotics: Mechanisms and Control (Cambridge University Press, 2009).

His research interests include the design of control systems, and associated signal processing with applications in aerospace systems, smart structures, robotics, biomedical engineering, and energy systems. In particular, the research interests include dynamics and robust adaptive estimation and control of linear and nonlinear aerospace, energy systems, including renewable and sustainable energy and desalination systems with parametric and dynamic uncertainties. Dr. Vepa is a member of the Royal Aeronautical Society, London; the Institution of Electrical and Electronic Engineers (IEEE), New York; a fellow of the Higher Education Academy; a member of the Royal Institute of Navigation, London; and a chartered engineer.
