William E. Singhose is a Professor at the George W. Woodruff School of Mechanical Engineering at Georgia Institute of Technology. He joined Georgia Tech in 1998 as an Assistant Professor, previously serving as a Postdoctoral Associate at MIT. His research focuses on dynamics and control of flexible machines, including crane control, spacecraft systems, and robotics. He leads the Crane Safety Research Center . Education: Ph.D., Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1997 M.S., Mechanical Engineering, Stanford University, 1992 B.S., Mechanical Engineering, Massachusetts Institute of Technology, 1990 Research emphasizes minimizing vibration in mechanical systems through advanced control strategies. His innovations include input shaping techniques for reducing payload oscillations in cranes and optimizing thruster control in spacecraft. Recent work explores human-motion based crane operation and RFID integration. His methods have been applied to silicon handling robots, manufacturing equipment, and scanning devices. Publications span crane dynamics, vibration suppression, and spacecraft control, with notable contributions to ASME Journal of Dynamic Systems and AIAA Journal of Guidance, Control, and Dynamics . He holds two U.S. patents related to command shaping and vibration minimization. Awards highlight his teaching excellence (CETL Awards) and research impact (SME Tlusty Award). As an advisor, his students won multiple SAIC paper contests. Beyond academia, he is a former NCAA Division III National Decathlon Champion.
