Mark French's work spans mathematical control theory (studying how to model and stabilize dynamic systems, including techniques like Kalman filtering and stability analysis) and applied engineering education, including STEM outreach projects built around guitar making and musical instrument acoustics. His publications also include optimization theory teaching materials and engineering education case studies, such as motorsports technology courses. This is a varied portfolio combining technical control-systems research with hands-on engineering education initiatives.
