Hi, I am currently a PhD student at the Indian Institute of Science, Bengalore.
My research focuses on the design of approximation-free, finite-time controllers
for general Euler-Lagrange systems, such as robot manipulators, quadrotors, and
acrobots. A key aspect of my work is developing controllers that do not rely on
model parameters, making them broadly applicable across systems. Since all physical
systems inherently operate under state and input constraints, I further investigate
controller designs that are provably safe and stable under state, input, and temporal
constraints. Recognizing that real-world systems are invariably subject to unknown
bounded external disturbances, I also explore time-varying gain designs to ensure
robustness. Ultimately, the controllers developed through my research are validated
through real-world deployments on robotic platforms, bridging the gap between theory
and practice.
