Tianyi He

Dr. Tianyi He is Assistant Professor in Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering at Utah State University. His research focuses on robust and learning-based control methods for autonomous systems, with applications to unmanned aerial vehicles, electric vertical take-off and landing (eVTOL) aircraft, and autonomous ground vehicles.

Key research areas include Linear Parameter Varying (LPV) systems, Model Predictive Control (MPC), and reinforcement learning applications. Recent publications demonstrate innovations in disturbance rejection control for urban air mobility, hybrid physics-data modeling, and vehicle dynamics control.

Dr. He teaches courses in mechatronics, vibrations, and optimization methods. He currently advises graduate students working on aerospace control systems and autonomous vehicle applications.
