Raymond Kristiansen

Job description

Raymond Kristiansen was born in Finnsnes, Norway, in 1977. He received his BSc degree in Computer Science from Narvik University College (NUC), Norway, in 1998, and his MSc degree in Engineering Cybernetics from the Norwegian University of Science & Technology (NTNU), Norway, in 2000. From September through November 2005, he was a graduate scholar visitor at the “Laboratoire de Signaux et Systemes”, Supelec in Paris, France, under the supervision of Dr. Antonio Loria. He received his PhD degree in Engineering Cybernetics from NTNU in 2008 with the thesis “Dynamic Synchronization of Spacecraft: Modeling and Coordinated Control of Leader-Follower Spacecraft Formations” under supervision of Professor Jan Tommy Gravdahl at NTNU. Since 2008 he has held several research/administrative positions, and in the period 2016-2022 he served as Vice dean for research at the Faculty of Engineering Science and Technology, UiT the Arctic University of Norway.  

 Kristiansen is currently Professor in automatic control and head of the Electromechanical systems research group at the Department of Electrical Engineering, Faculty of Engineering Science and Technology, at UiT the Arctic University of Norway. He is a member of the editorial boards of the Elsevier journal Simulation Modelling Practice and Theory, and Advanced Space Engineering (specialty section of Frontiers in Space Technologies). His research interests include modeling and nonlinear control of space and aerospace systems in general, and satellites and UAVs in particular, with a special focus on attitude parameterization and control, synchronization and coordinated control in formations.
