Elias Krantz

I am a PhD student in Vehicle Engineering at the School of Engineering Sciences (SCI) at KTH under the supervision of Christer Fuglesang, Gunnar Tibert, and Huina Mao. I am part of the space technology group at SCI, and my research interests involve astrodynamics, space systems and automatic control.

My PhD thesis is on the topic of control of multi-agent autonomous systems in space and weightless environments, and is funded by WASP (Wallenberg AI, Autonomous Systems and Software Program). The research is carried out as part of the WASP-NEST DISCOWER project, developing novel distributed control and planning strategies for space and underwater robotics by incorporating their shared features and operational challenges.
