Research Interests

My research focuses on providing systematic and mathematical methods to design, model, and analyze highly complex and integrated systems. My main areas of interest are in risk-based design, model-based design, system analysis and optimization, and uncertainty modeling during design, applied to complex engineering systems such as aircraft, spacecraft, automobiles, etc. My earlier work focused on design for manufacturing, vibration monitoring, and failure analysis.
