Oliver Sawodny (born 1966 in Stuttgart) is a German electrical engineer and university professor. He is the director of the Institute for System Dynamics at the University of Stuttgart since 2005.
Life
editProfessor Sawodny received his Dipl.-Ing. degree in electrical engineering from the University of Karlsruhe, Karlsruhe, Germany, in 1991 and his Ph.D. degree from the University of Ulm, Ulm, Germany, in 1996. In 2002, he became a Full Professor at the Technical University of Ilmenau, Ilmenau, Germany. Since 2005, he has been the Director of the Institute for System Dynamics,[1] University of Stuttgart, Stuttgart, Germany.
His current research interests include methods of differential geometry, trajectory generation, and applications to mechatronic systems. He received important paper awards in major control application journals such as IEEE Transaction on Control System Technology Outstanding Paper Award (2013).[2] Oliver Sawodny is member of the editorial board of several journals. At the Institute for System Dynamics at the University of Stuttgart, he is currently leading a growing group of about fifty people.[3] He has research collaboration projects with many companies as Audi,[4] Bosch, Daimler, Zeiss, among others. Additionally, he is the spokesman of large research initiatives of the German science foundation (DFG) like the CRC 1244 Adaptive skins and structures for the built environment of tomorrow[5] and the RTG 2543 Intraoperative Multisensory Tissue Differentiation in Oncology.[6] He is member in the board of directors[7] of the Cluster of Excellence Integrative Computational Design and Construction for Architecture (IntCDC).
