Masters Projects
Engineering Optimization & Modeling Center offers a number of research projects that can be carried out by interested graduate students. The projects are suitable for students pursuing the Masters degree in Electrical Engineering or Mechanical Engineering. Available project topics are related to the mainstream research activity of EOMC, in particular, computationally efficient optimization and modeling methodologies for microwave and RF as well as aerodynamic and hydrodynamic applications.
Example project topics in Electrical Engineering:
- Surrogate-based optimization methodologies for computer-aided design of microwave circuits
- Computationally efficient modeling techniques for statistical analysis and design optimization of microwave devices
- Implementation of robust design optimization techniques for CST Microwave Studio
- Design and optimization of antennas using space mapping technology
- Automated implementation of tuning space mapping algorithm for microwave design optimization
- Design and optimization of antennas for personal communication using space mapping technology
- Computationally efficient aerodynamic shape optimization using physics-based modeling
- Development of flapping-wing unmanned air vehicles
Prospective students interested in doing research within EOMC are encouraged to contact Slawomir Koziel (koziel@ru.is) regarding projects in Electrical Engineering or Leifur Leifsson (leifurth@ru.is) regarding projects in Mechanical Engineering.
