Modular Coastal Navigation Platform for USVs in GPS-Denied Environments
Developed a modular simulation framework in ROS 2 and Gazebo to evaluate GPS-denied navigation methods for unmanned surface vehicles (USVs).
About Me
I am a PhD student in Computational Science and Engineering at Georgia Tech, working in the Aerospace Systems Design Laboratory (ASDL). My research focuses on multifidelity modeling for multidisciplinary design optimization. My previous work includes the application of data-driven and physics-based surrogate models to engineering problems such as design optimization, reliability analysis, and digital twins.
