Research summary
AI-generated

Alireza Safa works on control engineering, developing methods to precisely command and stabilize systems that face uncertainty, delays, or hardware faults. Much of the work focuses on spacecraft attitude control (keeping satellites correctly oriented) and precision positioning devices like piezoelectric motors and stabilized platforms/mirrors used in optics and sensing equipment.
