Energy Harvesting and Vibration Control Lab
The Energy harvesting and Vibration Control Lab investigates how energy is extracted from the surrounding environment to power small, stand-alone, digital logic devices. In our lab, we study and design interesting linear and non-linear dynamical responses for vibration energy harvesting to maximize the performance of the devices. With advanced mathematical modeling, simulation, and experiment methods, we are able to predict highly complex responses and alter their structures to satisfy certain requirements.

Vibration & Noise Control of Electro-Mechanical Systems Lab
This project addresses challenges in achieving effective vibration and noise suppression in machineries through the design and development of passive, semi-active, and active control systems and control actuation mechanisms. The project also focuses on developing active vibration control systems for electro-mechanical drive trains, incorporating active bearings and motor torque control to suppress vibration in the drive-train systems, such as vibration contributed by the flexibility of rotor-shaft structures.
