Vision

The Moore Dynamics and Analytics Laboratory (MODAL) synergistically combines theory, mathematical and computational modeling, and experimentation to understand and exploit strongly nonlinear dynamical phenomena. Our vision is to place nonlinear dynamics in the toolbox of every vibration engineer. Our approach is to leverage data, machine learning, and autonomy to remove barriers for utilizing and understanding nonlinearity.

MoDAL vision.
