UoS DRG 2nd Research Workshop in Structural Dynamics

LVV Events

This event took place 4 years ago

In March 2017, the Dynamics Research Group (DRG) in the University of Sheffield hosted a two-day research meeting: a one-day celebration of our 25+ year relationship with Los Alamos National Laboratory in the US, and a day based around population-based Structural Health Monitoring (SHM) in support of K Worden’s EPSRC Fellowship. The meeting proved very successful, so we are happy to announce a second workshop to be held this year; a three-day workshop to be held between the 18th and 20th November 2019.

The new workshop will be themed around the EPSRC Fellowships of K Worden and EJ Cross, with one day associated with each project. A third day will focus on verification and validation/digital twin work, and will incorporate full-scale structural test demos at the newly–operational Laboratory for Verification and Validation (LVV). Each day will be comprised of keynote lectures by international authorities, detailed research presentations, and ample space for discussions. The days will be:

·      Day 1: Population-based SHM: Focussed on new methods in SHM based around state-of-the-art methods in machine learning, graphs and complex network theory.

·      Day 2: Grey-box modelling for structural dynamics: A day focussing on how to incorporate physics and data-based learning into models.

·      Day 3: Verification and Validation: V&V and Digital Twins. Large scale demos in the LVV.

Attendance is by invitation only.
