Mayank Sewlia

I am a PhD student at KTH specializing in control and motion planning of multiple robotic manipulators. My research centers on satisfying complex, high-level tasks, articulated through temporal logics.

I am actively seeking research internship opportunities in the industry to better position both myself and my research within the broader robotics community.

RESUME (updated Dec 2023)

In addition to my work, I enjoy a variety of physical activities, such as rowing, running, biking, and playing badminton. I have recently taken up learning to play the piano, and I also have a soft corner for English literature.

Education

(Nov 2020 - Current) PhD student at KTH Royal Institute of Technology working under the supervision of Prof. Dimos Dimarogonas and Prof. Christos Verginis. I am part of the ERC project LEAFHOUND where I work on designing controllers for robotic systems with high-level specifications.
(Mar 2018 - Aug 2020) I obtained the 'Master of Science in Aerospace Engineering' from Technion - Israel Institute of Technology, Haifa, Israel. Here I worked with Prof. Daniel Zelazo to design event-triggered controllers for multi-agent systems.
(Aug 2013 - Jun 2017) I obtained the 'Bachelor of Technology' in Aerospace Engineering from Alliance University, Bangalore, India. Among many things, such as designing a two-way mission to Mars, I worked with Mr. Feroz Ahmed to find time-optimal trajectories between Earth and Mars using Particle Swarm Optimizer.
