Journal Clubs (Creating reading groups that people want to be part of)

I also give some insights from my own experiences running a (control-related) journal club, as well as a summary of three of my favourite papers we’ve read.</p><p> </p><p>You can find the transcript at: <a href="https://docs.google.com/document/d/19i4egf_2KEWqkp94ZW3QjRTH8PeAZz6yEix8zoSfx4k/edit?usp=sharing">https://docs.google.com/document/d/19i4egf_2KEWqkp94ZW3QjRTH8PeAZz6yEix8zoSfx4k/edit?usp=sharing</a></p><p>Follow the podcast on LinkedIn: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/coffee-and-control-podcast/">https://www.linkedin.com/company/coffee-and-control-podcast/</a></p><p>Or connect with me directly: <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucy-hodgins-733a30175/">https://www.linkedin.com/in/lucy-hodgins-733a30175/</a></p><p> </p><p><strong>References</strong></p><p>Al Edwards: <a href="https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/62mm7y/doctor-al-edwards">https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/62mm7y/doctor-al-edwards</a></p><p>Antonia Marcu: <a href="https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/5xk5lz/miss-antonia-marcu">https://www.southampton.ac.uk/people/5xk5lz/miss-antonia-marcu</a></p><p>Convexification for soft landing optimal control paper: <a href="http://www.larsblackmore.com/iee_tcst13.pdf">http://www.larsblackmore.com/iee_tcst13.pdf</a></p><p>Improved soft robotic parameterisation paper: <a href="https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8961972">https://ieeexplore.ieee.org/document/8961972</a></p><p>KKL observer synthesis paper: <a href="https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.11655">https://arxiv.org/abs/2501.11655</a> </p>
