Research
My research project, Optimal Control of Fusion Processes, focuses on highly accurate magnetohydrodynamic (MHD) simulations using finite element methods. The goal is to solve optimization problems for plasma stabilization and to explore deep reinforcement learning for real-time control. This work has the potential to contribute to the development of feasible fusion energy reactors: a practically limitless source of sustainable energy.
