The use of Tuned Mass Dampers (TMDs) is a well-established method to reduce vibration in a range of structural systems, from skyscrapers to bridges. These systems are typically designed as single-degree-of-freedom devices, each tuned to reduce a single natural frequency....

Predicting the propagation of shock waves in tunnel-like structures is crucial for various engineering applications, including supersonic flight, blast protection, and underground explosions. However, the predictive tools currently available to engineers remain limited in their ability to accurately capture the...

We investigate the conditions under which a given network topology can support an asymptotically stable equilibrium in linear systems, in both discrete and continuous time. This question arises naturally in the study of decentralized networked systems, where stability properties are...

The seminar is part of the monthly seminar series, presented in English by graduate students of the Mechanical Engineering Faculty for graduate students. The seminars are scheduled on the first Sunday of the month, 12:30-13:00 (seminar), 13:00-13:30 (lunch).
