Research
Interests Galip Ulsoy has over 30 years of experience in the dynamic
modeling, analysis, and control of mechanical systems. Particular areas of emphasis are in
axially translating or rotating elastic systems, computer control systems, and
adaptive control; as well as applications in manufacturing systems (robotics,
turning, milling, drilling, sawing), and automotive systems (accessory belt
drives, active suspensions, vehicle lateral control).
Galip Ulsoy's research activities span
the full range from basic to applied engineering research, and employ
analytical, experimental, and numerical methods. For more information about past and current research
projects please see the links for research projects,
publications and presentations, or visit the home
pages of current and former doctoral students and postdoctoral research associates, or visit the photo gallery.
Prospective
graduate students (or postdoctoral researchers or visiting scholars) interested in
working with me on research projects should contact me by e-mail (ulsoy@umich.edu) and attach a recent
resume. However, apply directly
for admission and financial aid to the graduate program through the Mechanical
Engineering Department. Please
be advised that due to the large number of such inquiries I receive every day,
I will not be able to respond to your message unless I have available a current
position that suits your background and interests. More information for prospective doctoral students is
available in the document PhD_Info.pdf
