Research

My research is centered around the general topic of human mobility. I work on vehicle and assistive device design, simulation, analysis, and control of human locomotion and manually controlled vehicles, and engineering computation software development. I lead the Laboratorium of Marvelous Mechanical Motum and advise undergraduate and graduate students researchers in the BioMechanical Engineering Department at Delft University of Technology.
