Research interests:
Current: The interest in my PhD Thesis is under optimization, and it focuses on the Trajectory-Based Methods for Solving Nonlinear and Mixed Integer Nonlinear Programming Problems.
Past:
1. Mathematical model for chessboard waves: The observed chessboard waves near Isle de Rhe are believed to result from an interaction of solitary waves released by sea swell approaching the region from various directions. The consistent occurrence of these waves indicates regular underlying conditions, likely influenced by a combination of weather systems and bottom topography.
2. Dynamic parking pricing: The interest in my master’s degree project was focusing on assessing and controlling parking demand in cities by using a pricing approach with changes with demand.
