Tommy Gravdahl is professor at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). He was born in 1969 and graduated siv.ing (1994) and dr.ing (1998) in Engineering Cybernetics, NTNU. From 1998 to 2001 he was a postdoctoral researcher with the Department of Engineering Cybernetics. He was appointed Associate Professor (2001) and Professor (2005) at the same department, where he served as deputy department head 2006-07 and department head in 2008/09. In the academic year 2007/08 he was with The Centre for Complex Dynamic Systems and Control (CDSC), The University of Newcastle, Australia. His current research interests include mathematical modeling and nonlinear control in general, modeling and control of turbomachinery and control of spacecraft, robots and nanopositioning devices. He has supervised the graduation of 57 MSc and 3 PhD. He has published more than 75 papers at conferences and in international journals and in 2000 he received the IEEE Transactions on Control Systems Technology Outstanding Paper Award. He is member of the editorial board of Simulation Modeling Practice and Theory, and is author of Compressor Surge and Rotating Stall: Modeling and Control (Springer 1999), co-author of Modeling and Simulation for Automatic Control (Marine Cybernetics 2002) and co-editor of Group Coordination and Cooperative Control (Springer 2006).
