Dragan Djurdjanovic

Dr. Dragan Djurdjanovic earned his Ph.D. in Mech. Eng. and MS in Elec. Eng. (systems) from the University of Michigan in 2002. He joined the faculty of The University of Texas at Austin in September 2007. He received the 2006 Branimir F. von Turkovich Outstanding Young Manufacturing Engineer Award from the Society of Manufacturing Engineers. Dr. Djurdjanovic’s research seeks to make manufacturing systems, rotating machinery, and automobiles more independent and durable by using multiple sensor reading to help isolate abnormal behavior and autonomously compensate for it. His findings in dimensional quality modeling and diagnosis in multistage manufacturing systems have been employed by Ford Motor Co. and General Motors, while his work in the self-healing approach to diagnosis in automotive engine systems is being used by ETAS Inc. and Bosch. Research Interests: * Advanced quality control in multi-station manufacturing systems * Immunity inspired approaches to diagnosis and control of complex dynamic systems * Maintenance decision-making in flexible and reconfigurable systems * Applications of advanced signal processing in biomedical engineering
