The 2015 Nonlinear Mechanics and Dynamics Research Institute

The Nonlinear Mechanics and Dynamics (NOMAD) Research Institute is a six week long collaborative research program for graduate students from across the world. The 2015 NOMAD Research Institute was hosted jointly by Sandia National Laboratories and the University of New Mexico, and featured 24 graduate students working on seven different research projects. These projects included: developing experimental strategies for studying the dynamics of nonlinear systems, a numerical round robin for predicting the response of a jointed system, quantification of uncertainty in a lap joint, assessment of experimental substructuring methods, a study of stress waves propagating through jointed interfaces, structural design optimization with joints, and the nonlinear system identification of MEMS devices. This report details both the technical research and the programmatic organization of the 2015 NOMAD Research Institute.

The 2014 Sandia Nonlinear Mechanics and Dynamics Summer Research Institute

A collaborative research institute was organized and held at Sandia Albuquerque for a period of six weeks. This research institute brought together researchers from around the world to work collaboratively on a set of research projects. These research projects included: developing experimental guidelines for studying variability and repeatability of nonlinear structures; decoupling aleatoric and epistemic uncertainty in measurements to improve dynamic predictions; a numerical round robin to assess the performance of five different numerical codes for modeling systems with strong nonlinearities; and an assessment of experimentally derived and numerically derived reduced order models. In addition to the technical collaborations, the institute also included a series of seminars given by both Sandians and external experts, as well as a series of tours and field trips to local places of scientific and engineering importance. This report details both the technical research and the programmatic organization of the 2014 Sandia Nonlinear Mechanics and Dynamics Summer Research Institute.
