MARS seminar series. Speaker: Max Champneys (Sheffield) Title: Recent applications of uncertainty quantification in structural dynamics

Abstract: A robust treatment of uncertainty is critical in structural dynamics and beyond. In this seminar, Dr Max Champneys will share a number of case-studies demonstrating practical Bayesian applications to problems in structural dynamics. These include: Nonlinear equation discovery with a Bayesian variant of SINDy; A Bayesian cointegration approach to removing variability in structural health monitoring features; and an uncertainty-aware approach to optimally route fibre-bragg strain gauges along an aircraft wing. Max will also share the details of an open-source dataset comprising comprehensive ground vibration testing of a BAE Hawk T1A aircraft with applications to structural health monitoring and system identification.
