Dynamics of particles in stationary and oscillating flowsThe motion of small bodies in a hydrodynamic flow is a classical problem of fluid dynamics. Since 1980s-1990s the corresponding studies have been largely intensified due to the new

Inferring latent networks from longitudinal relational data Longitudinal bipartite relational data characterize the evolution of relations between pairs of actors, where actors are of two distinct types and relations exist only between disparate

Applications of Dynamical Systems Theory to Astrodynamics and Celestial MechanicsThe underlying dynamical structures that exist within multi-body systems can be leveraged to enable the design of trajectories for missions to interplanetary

Scaling SIR to geophysical fluids This research is rooted in a desire to apply provably consistent Bayesian methods to select models for nonlinear multiscale dynamics that must be observed in high resolution. As a motivating example, we

Inspired by the gliding behavior of the paradise tree snake, Chrysopelea paradisi, I will discuss a simplified model for passive aerodynamic flight which gives an intuitive and dynamically rich 2 degree-of-freedom system. Within this model, all

Do global sensitivity metrics for parameterized dynamical systems admit their own dynamical systems?Continuous time dynamical systems in applications include input parameters (rate constants, forcings, etc.) that must be set using measurement data.

Spatiotemporal Dynamics of Neocortical Seizure ActivitySeizures are defined as sudden, abnormal electrical disturbances in the brain. Patients diagnosed with epilepsy have chronic, recurrent seizures and often require clinical

Collective Ecophysiology and Physics of Social InsectsCollective behavior of organisms creates environmental micro-niches that buffer them from environmental fluctuations e.g. temperature, humidity, mechanical perturbations etc., thus coupling

Spacecraft Mission DesignMission design combines dynamics, control theory, and computation.Newton’s laws and computational tools are used to design spacecraft orbits to explore our solar system. Onboard controls are used to change the velocity and
