Lars Struen Imsland

Lars Struen Imsland is a Professor at the Department of Technical Cybernetics at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology (NTNU). He has been serving in this position since 2009 and is a member of the Control Systems research group. His work spans multiple domains within control theory and its applications.

Dr. Imsland's research interests include:

• Model Predictive Control (MPC) for various applications
• Wind farm control and optimization
• Process control in petroleum engineering
• Energy systems optimization and control
• Virtual flow metering and estimation techniques
• Grey-box modeling approaches

His recent publications demonstrate a strong focus on applying advanced control techniques to renewable energy systems, particularly wind farms, as well as petroleum engineering applications. His work often combines traditional control theory with modern machine learning approaches, creating hybrid methodologies that leverage the strengths of both domains. The research shows increasing attention to handling uncertainty in control systems and integrating renewable energy sources with conventional power systems.

Dr. Imsland has received recognition for his contributions to control systems through numerous publications in high-impact journals and conferences.

As an advisor, Dr. Imsland has supervised multiple master's students working on diverse control applications, including wind turbine control, building energy management, and petroleum engineering systems. His students have gone on to work on cutting-edge research problems at the intersection of control theory and practical engineering applications.
