About the Dynamical Systems Laboratory

 

At the Dynamical Systems Laboratory (DSL), we conduct multidisciplinary research in the theory and application of dynamical systems, motivated by the objectives of advancing engineering science and improving society. Our theoretical expertise is in controls, networks, nonlinear dynamics, and time-series, while our application domain is in modeling and analysis of physical, social, and technical systems.

Our group is home to undergraduate students, graduate students, and post-doctoral fellows from everywhere in the world, sharing the same research vision and bringing diverse technical expertise. Our laboratory is a 2,000-square-foot facility between the Center for Urban Science and Progress and the Department of Mechanical and Aerospace Engineering, equipped for research and development in animal behavior, experimental fluid and solid mechanics, human-machine interactions, material characterization, robotics, and vibrations.

Our laboratory houses a comprehensive suite of electrical/mechanical fabrication and testing equipment, an animal facility for fish experiments, and a computational infrastructure for modeling and analysis.
