Process Research and Intelligent Systems Modeling (PRISM) is a world class collaborative research group for the application of innovative advanced process control and optimization techniques to be applied to:

Computational biology
Drilling automation
Enhanced recovery of oil and gas reserves
Flow assurance
Sustainable energy systems
Unmanned Aircraft Systems (UAS)

The group includes graduate and undergraduate students who are taking a lead role in the specific applications mentioned above. The PRISM group is also develops novel algorithms and techniques for large-scale and complex systems. These applications and techniques advance the area of Process Systems Engineering (PSE).
Professional Interests: Nonlinear optimization, Dynamic optimization, Estimation

Professional Interests: nonlinear programming, APMonitor, differential algebraic systems

Matt Allen is a Professor in Mechanical Engineering at Brigham Young University. Prior to that he taught for 15 years in the department of Engineering Physics at the University of Wisconsin-Madison. He received a B.S. in Mechanical Engineering from BYU, M. S. and PhD degrees from the Georgia Tech in 2005 and was a post-doc at Sandia National Laboratories. e has developed robust experimental/analytical substructuring methods, a new framework for identifying linear time-periodic systems, continuous-scan laser vibrometry methods, and model updating techniques for geometrically nonlinear systems based on nonlinear normal modes. Recently his work is concerned with reduced order models for structures with energy dissipation due to friction such as bolted joints and for thin structures such as aircraft skin panels which exhibit geometric nonlinearity.

Professional Interests: Non Linear Control
