Background
Dr Efstathios Siampis joined the Advanced Vehicle Engineering Centre as a Lecturer in December 2019. He received his PhD degree from Cranfield University in 2016 for his work on predictive torque-vectoring control for Electric Vehicles, which resulted in several journal and conference papers. Following his PhD, he joined Delta Motorsport as a Vehicle Dynamics and Control Engineer and worked on several research and commercial projects. His research interests include vehicle systems modelling, autonomous vehicle dynamics, optimal control and estimation and embedded systems.
