His work on system identification and observability of nonlinear systems aims to optimize sensor setups for infrastructure reliability. Recent publications address discontinuous Kalman filters for non-smooth dynamics, energy loss in rocking bodies, and experimental validation of seismic response models. Applications span seismically isolated buildings, museum artifacts, hospital equipment, and supercomputers.
Key research trends include:
- Nonlinear dynamics of rocking/sliding systems
- Bayesian identification methods
- Energy dissipation mechanisms
- 3D motion tracking algorithms
- Sensor fusion and data-driven modeling
His publications since 2010 demonstrate interdisciplinary collaboration across civil, mechanical, and computational engineering domains.
