This PhD project at Delft University of Technology (TU Delft) investigates efficient online optimization for time-varying systems, with a focus on safe and adaptive learning control. The research addresses a key challenge in learning-based control: how to learn a model while still guaranteeing safety, especially when the optimal decision changes over time. The project aims to develop computationally efficient methods for safe learning in time-varying optimal control problems. A central research ...

This PhD project develops fair, scalable and reliable methods for controlling large-scale networked systems, with the electricity distribution grid as its main application. Thousands of solar panels, heat pumps and electric vehicles increasingly compete for limited network capacity, creating a need for transparent and equitable congestion management. The research will formalize fairness concepts such as proportional, max-min and probabilistic fairness as mathematical objectives or constraints in...
