Stephen M. Rock received the B.S and M.S. degrees in mechanical engineering from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, Cambridge, in 1972, and the Ph.D. degree in applied mechanics from Stanford University, Stanford, CA, in 1978.Dr. Rock joined the Stanford faculty in 1988, and is now an Associate Professor in the Department of Aeronautics and Astronautics. Prior to joining the Stanford faculty, he led the Controls and Instrumentation Department of Systems Control Technology, Inc. In his 11 years at SCT, he performed and led research in integrated control; fault detection, isolation and accommodation; turbine engine modeling and control; and parameter identification. His current research interests include the development and experimental validation of control approaches for robotic systems and for vehicle applications. A major focus is both the high-level and low-level control of underwater robotic vehicles.
