Timm FaulwasserCurrent research interests My research interests are focused on optimization-based control and real-time optimization. Especially, I am interested in the following topics: real-time optimization of uncertain nonlinear processes, nonlinear model predictive control (NMPC), turnpike properties of optimal control problems and their use in economic MPC, reference-tracking and path-following problems.I am interested in applying these control methods to energy systems, chemical process, aeronautics, and mechatro
