Our primary interest lies in developing effective mathematical models and AI-driven numerical procedures for a wide range of physical, mechanical, and aerospace systems. We focus on integrating artificial intelligence into structural dynamics, system identification, and autonomous navigation. By leveraging AI-enabled digital twin technologies, physics-informed machine learning, and advanced sensor fusion, we aim to pioneer next-generation predictive modeling, structural health management, and intelligent autonomous systems.
