My doctoral research focused on the control and optimization of systems governed by evolution equations arising from nonlinear partial differential equations (PDEs), motivated by significant physical phenomena in science and engineering. In particular, I studied hyperbolic models in which control inputs and observations are applied either on the boundary or within the spatial domain.

I continue to build on this line of work, while expanding my research to include wave breaking phenomena for general PDE models, two-point boundary value problems, and Biot-type models.
