Dr. Lee Awarded a $7.5M MURI Grant from DoD

Congratulations to Professor Taeyoung Lee of the Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering Department for receiving an award from the Department of Defense (DoD) as part of the Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative (MURI) Program! His project was one of 31 selected for an award: “Unified Large-Scale Theoretical and Computational Frameworks for Invariance and Composition of Open Hybrid Dynamical Systems.”

The five-year, $7.5 million award supports a collaboration with researchers at the University of Michigan, Rutgers University, and the University of Florida. The project examines hybrid dynamical systems through geometry, topology, homology, category theory, and uncertainty. FDCL first announced the award on March 22, 2023.

Related later research: hybrid uncertainty propagation on a torus, illustrating geometry and discrete resets.
