Researcher Summary
Fundamental research activities include nonlinear dynamics of collective, resonator arrays and multi-physics interactions of coupled oscillators (e.g. fluid-structure interactions, MEMS, atomic-scale force interactions, piezo-electric actuation/sensing, etc.).
Application-oriented research efforts are ranging from nano/micro to macro-scale systems including: AFM array technology, non-contact AFM for soft, living biological samples, aquatic fish-like robots to monitor waterways, tree-traversing and -cutting robotics for safe wood harvesting.
