Vikram Kapila是纽约大学布鲁克林理工学院机械工程副教授，在那里他指导了一个由美国国家科学基金会资助的基于网络的机电一体化和过程控制远程实验室，一个由美国国家科学基金会资助的机电一体化教师研究经验网站，以及一个由美国国家科学基金会资助的GK-12研究员项目。他曾在俄亥俄州代顿市的空军研究实验室担任访问职位。他的研究兴趣是合作控制；分布式航天器编队控制；线性/非线性控制及其在鲁棒控制、饱和控制和时滞系统中的应用；闭环输入整形；航天器姿态控制；机电一体化;以及基于DSP/PC/单片机的实时控制。在由国家科学基金会资助的教师研究经验网站和gk12研究员项目，以及由独立社区基金会、摩根大通基金会、摩托罗拉基金会和纽约空间资助联盟资助的布鲁克林中心机器人计划（CBRI）下，他进行了重要的K-12外展活动，将工程概念融入纽约市几所公立学校的科学教室和实验室。他获得了理工学院2002年和2008年雅各布斯卓越教育奖和2003年杰出教师奖。2004年，他被选为纽约理工大学其他跨学科研究所的高级研究员，任期三年。出版专著2部，主编专著4章，书评1篇，期刊论文40篇，会议论文90篇。指导过67名高中生，86名高中教师，21名本科生暑期实习生，11个本科生顶点设计团队，毕业7名硕士和4名博士。
Vikram Kapila, Polytechnic University VIKRAM KAPILA is an Associate Professor of Mechanical Engineering at Polytechnic Institute of NYU, Brooklyn, NY, where he directs an NSF funded Web-Enabled Mechatronics and Process Control Remote Laboratory, an NSF funded Research Experience for Teachers Site in Mechatronics, and an NSF funded GK-12 Fellows project. He has held visiting positions with the Air Force Research Laboratories in Dayton, OH. His research interests are in cooperative control; distributed spacecraft formation control; linear/nonlinear control with applications to robust control, saturation control, and time-delay systems; closed-loop input shaping; spacecraft attitude control; mechatronics; and DSP/PC/microcontroller-based real-time control. Under Research Experience for Teachers Site and GK 12 Fellows programs, funded by the National Science Foundation, and the Central Brooklyn Robotics Initiative (CBRI), funded by the Independence Community Foundation, J.P. Morgan Chase Foundation, Motorola Foundation, and NY Space Grant Consortium, among others, he has conducted significant K-12 outreach to integrate engineering concepts in science classrooms and labs of several New York City public schools. He received Polytechnic’s 2002 and 2008 Jacobs Excellence in Education Award and 2003 Distinguished Teacher Award. In 2004, he was selected for a three-year term as a Senior Faculty Fellow of NYU-Poly’s Othmer Institute for Interdisciplinary Studies. His scholarly activities have included two edited books, 4 chapters in edited books, 1 book review, 40 journal articles, and 90 conference papers. Moreover, he has mentored 67 high school students, 86 high school teachers, 21 undergraduate summer interns, and 11 undergraduate capstone-design teams, and graduated seven M.S. and four Ph.D. students.
