Member of:
  • Data-driven modelling (WG2)
  • Bioreactor optimization (AP2)

His PhD focuses on the online implementation of Statistical Process Control (SPC)–methods. Process plants nowadays routinely dispose of historical databases that contain the frequent measurements of online sensors on hundreds of variables. SPC exploits these historical data for fault detection and –diagnosis of the current process. Research topics include online data alignment, linear and non-linear data reduction techniques and improving the performance of fault diagnosis.

Newsflash

Two OPTEC professors have been awarded three "Gouden Krijtjes", the yearly teaching awards given by the organization of engineering students (vtk). Prof. Lombaert was awarded the prize for the best course in civil engineering, and Prof. Diehl the prizes for the best professor and the best course in mathematical engineering (where he teaches numerical optimization). They received these awards at the yearly "proffentap" where experienced students taught them how to draft beer professionally.
