Lagrangian devices with a validated model in multi-particle tracking (A08)

• Subject Area: Mathematics ; Automation, Mechatronics, Control Systems, Intelligent Technical Systems, Robotics
• Term: since 2023
• Project identifier: Deutsche Forschungsgemeinschaft (DFG) - Project number 503850735

The project will develop Lagrangian devices that can function as sensors and actuators and are substantially smaller than existing Lagrangian sensors. To enable accurate tracking of multiple particles, we will integrate sensor readings from the devices with a newly developed real-time model for their trajectories. This will deliver a high fidelity tracking mechanism that is robust and can cope with issues like noise, missing or ambiguous data and other adverse effects. Ultimately, this will allow the sensors to provide a comprehensive view of the internal state of a chemical reactor and enable their use for closed-loop control.
