Physics-Informed Systems • Deterministic Control • Grid Intelligence

Designing deterministic, physics-informed intelligence for safety-critical control and grid systems.

At the intersection of embedded logic, real-time operating systems, AI orchestration, and grid-scale infrastructure. My work translates high-stakes technical complexity into systems that are predictable, legible, and deployable in safety-critical environments.

About the work

I integrate AI, software, energy and robotics into systems where every layer is verifiable.

I do not treat them as isolated domains. From RTOS scheduling to AI orchestration, each layer has to be checkable before the one above it is allowed to depend on it.

Physics-informed intelligence

Where the laws of physics meet deterministic AI

Physics-informed intelligence does not stop at pattern recognition. It constrains learning with the same governing equations that define the physical system.

Total objective = Data fidelity + Physics penalty
The model is penalised whenever its predictions violate the governing dynamics of the system.
Ltotal = Ldata + λLphysics
Lphysics = ‖∂u/∂t + N[u]‖²

Where this is heading

Real-time surrogate models for optimal power flow and inverter control — systems that are not merely intelligent, but operationally trustworthy under physical constraints.
