I am an international Ph.D. student in the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department at Carleton University. I received my BASc (2018) in Mechanical Engineering from K. N. Toosi University of Technology. My Bachelor thesis was on Model Predictive Control (MPC) design for van der pol oscillator. I was awarded the sparkling talent quota to enter the Master’s program in Mechanical Engineering Department of Sharif University of Technology without an entrance exam. I was granted my MASc (2020) in Mechanical Engineering in the field of control and robotic. My Master’s thesis focused on designing and implementing a Model Predictive Controller for a lower limb exoskeleton. I am currently working on modeling and control of reconfigurable robotic systems at ASRoM-Lab. My goal is to use the port-Hamiltonian approach to model such systems and use Brain-inspired model-based learning to find the optimal configuration for mission execution and control of reconfigurable robots.
