During his time there he collaborated with Dr. Mischa Steurer and the Power Systems Group, developing fault protection systems for real-time simulations of notional shipboard power systems in a controller hardware-in-the-loop (CHIL) fashion. And with Dr. Moses Anubi and the Decision & Secure Systems Group to develop resilient control algorithms.

Responsibilities include:

• Designed and developed a signal interface in Python and its interface control document (ICD) to ease the control development process by enabling controllers to interact with a low-fidelity model and a real-time high-fidelity simulation environment by using User Datagram Protocol (UDP).
• Performed requirement analysis and documented functional, performance, and interface requirements for a fault management approach of a notional shipboard power system.
• Developed a control algorithm to recover a notional shipboard power system from an electrical fault, with a worst-case runtime of 87 milliseconds, by leveraging real-time simulators, control hardware-in-the-loop (CHIL), and test-driven development.
• Evaluated algorithm performance with a test automation framework that coordinates real-time simulation & control hardware, and automated evaluation of test results with the use of metrics.
• Designed electrical signal conditioning PCBs, created MATLAB scripts to auto-populate results for a Factory Acceptance Test (FAT), and used Modbus protocol to communicate between proprietary hardware and a real-time simulator, while working in an expert controlled environment.
• Organization and leading of student meetings
  

Simulated a system of ODEs with the Newton Raphson method in C++ to reduce the transport shuttling effect during charge and discharge cycles of Lithium Sulfur batteries.

Responsibilities:

• Organized and managed HMI programs with Siemen’s APOGEE Building Automation Software to be accessible by the Field Technicians, Engineers, and the Florida State University management.
• Programmed enhanced alarms for fault detection purposes that require temperature sensitive research environments, producing a safe contingency plan for the researcher environment.
